</SPAN>Oscar Wilde’s lively and timeless social satire, <I>An Ideal Husband,</I>
evolves around blackmail and political corruption, and touches on themes of
public and private honor. Everything seems perfect about Sir Robert Chiltern –
respected politician, adored husband, and paragon of virtue – that is until a
scheming woman with the key to his shady past threatens to reveal a scandal that
could destroy his reputation and his marriage.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The play sparkles with witty repartee
and quotable one-liners.<SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>As Mr.
Wilde writes: “In the world there are only two tragedies.<SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>One is not getting what one wants, and
the other is getting it.” <o:p></o:p></FONT></SPAN></B></P>
