Three-time Olivier Award-winner Sharon D Clarke is joined by Ncuti Gatwa ( Doctor Who; Sex Education) in this joyful reimagining of Oscar Wilde’s most celebrated comedy.  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. Max Webster ( Life of Pi) directs this hilarious story of identity, impersonation, and romance, filmed live from the National Theatre in London.
