Max Webster (Donmar’s Macbeth; Life of Pi) directs a joyful and flamboyant reimagining of Oscar Wilde’s most celebrated comedy. Olivier Award-winner Sharon D Clarke (Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom; Doctor Who) is joined by Ncuti Gatwa (Doctor Who; Sex Education) and Hugh Skinner (W1A; Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again) in this hilarious story of identity, impersonation and romance.

While assuming the role of a dutiful guardian in the country, Jack lets loose in town under a
false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy adopts a similar facade. Hoping to impress two
eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully
navigate.

Broadcast live in high definition from the National Theatre in London.
