A Woman of No Importance
Crescent Theatre20 Sheepcote Street, Birmingham

About this event
Every woman is a rebel, and usually in wild revolt against herself. The price of reputation, the cost of truth: the revelation of a woman’s secret and scandalous past comes back to haunt her in this classic comedy. Oscar Wilde’s biting satire explores the moral hypocrisy, injustice and double standards of the Victorian era. By turns funny and dramatic, Wilde’s sparkling wit and sharp observations on human nature, morality and the consequences of actions still resonate today. Part of Birmingham Comedy Festival, Friday 2 to Sunday 11 October 2026 For more information, see: Birmingham Comedy Festival
