closes on 23rd or 30th June 2012
Oscar Wilde's 1892 satire of Victorian High Society London, its morals, its behaviour and its attitude to marriage.

Mrs Erlynne. 42 - 52
Very attractive, mercurial international woman of mystery. With a past. Witty, clever, dangerous. Underneath she is a generous being with a big emotional landscape.

Lady Windermere. 20 - 25
A 21 year old woman finding out about life. Not prim or a prig but an innocent experiencing a coming of age. She has spirit and with it a specialness which makes her irresistible to Darlington. Some big melodramatic speeches to handle.

Lord Darlington 30 - 40
A depraved roué, but a Byronic flawed character too. Fascinating. Humour & wit. He exploits his friendship with Lady Windermere and professes his love to her, offering her a new life with him.

Lord Windermere 30 - 40
Husband to Lady W, a well-off diplomat and a figure of Victorian rectitude and high society respectability. Has a volatility underneath.

Duchess of Berwick 50+
A garrulous old gossip of the 'Ancien Régime'. Posh but vulgar at the same time. Must be funny. Cynical, poisonous. Lives well.


Lord Augustus Lorton 45 - 55
...or "Tuppy". Lord Windermere's friend who is enamoured of Mrs Erlynne. A jowly, gouty, upper class comic role. Debauched, but sharp underneath. Corrupt but quite nice and affable with it.

Lady Agatha Carlisle 20 - 25
An upper class girl, dressed like a clothes horse. Being married off for money. Will double with Rosalie, the maid.

Hopper 25 - 35
A bumptious Australian guy. Nouveau riche. Has oomph... Rugged, a rich, rough diamond.

Mr Cecil Graham 25 - 35
A sharp, young society clever clogs and spiky with it. A little decadent.

Mr Dumby 25 - 35
A young society gent entangled in intrigues. A double act with Cecil Graham.

Parker 45+
The older butler. Correct & straight. Impassive. A keeper of the secrets of the household. Almost a slightly sinister figure...

Lady Jedburgh 50+
An older society lady. In distinct contrast to Duchess of Berwick, she is slightly nervy, even confused. Comic feed.
