Oscar Wilde’s brilliant An Ideal Husband is a story of morality, blackmail and political corruption. Characterized by Wilde’s biting wit and sparkling humour, the play is also a tender hearted portrait of a marriage.

Sir Robert Chiltern (Alexander Hanson), a highly successful government minister, finds his reputation, career and marriage to the loving but idealistic Lady Chiltern (Rachael Stirling) threatened by the arrival of the mysterious Mrs Cheveley (Samantha Bond). Confronted with a damning secret from his past, Sir Robert turns for help to his friend, Lord Goring (Elliot Cowan) an apparently idle philanderer, who himself has a history with Mrs Cheveley.

Can Goring save his friend from ruin? And will Lady Chiltern be able to reconcile the man she loves with her expectations of an ideal husband?

Villanova Theatre to End 2012-13 Season with SALOME, 4/9-21
by BWW News Desk - Apr 20, 2013

Villanova Theatre's 2012-2013 culminates with an electrifying production of Salome, written by Oscar Wilde, directed by Rev. David Cregan, OSA, and on stage April 9 - 21, 2013. The linguistic genius behind The Importance of Being Earnest plunges us into the visceral, intoxicating world of King Herod and his enticing young stepdaughter, Salome. After being rejected by John the Baptist, Salome's unbridled desire for the pious prophet quickly turns into an uncontrollable lust for revenge. Wilde's sensational adaptation of this biblical tale dramatizes the eternal struggle between body and soul. Cregan's inspired production will feature stunning aerial dance, live drumming and chant, and a striking, elemental set design. (more...)
