Description
A world premiere adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s An Ideal Husband. Directed by the Douglas Morrisson Theatre’s Artistic Director Susan E. Evans, Bay Area playwright Scott Munson’s sparkling new adaptation of the 118 year old play in a modern setting.Wilde’s story clearly mirrors certain scandals in contemporary politics. When Artistic Director Susan E. Evans and San Jose-based playwright Scott Munson began discussions last year, Evans expressed her interest in Americanizing and updating An Ideal Husband. Asked why he chose 1959, Washington, D.C., to reset the play, Munson responded: “The original is set in London at the turn of the century, the height of the golden age of the British Empire, the end of one era and the beginning of another.
