The Trials Of Oscar Wilde
Thursday 14 February 1895 was the triumphant opening night of The Importance Of Being Earnest and the zenith of Oscar Wilde's career. Less than 100 days later he found himself a common prisoner and bankrupt, sentenced to two years' hard labour. But what happened during the trials and what did Wilde say? Was he harshly treated or was he the author of his own downfall? Using transcripts from the original trials and Wilde's own sparkling words, we can feel what it was like to be in the company of a flawed genius as this ideal husband was reduced to a man of no importance.
"I am one of those who are made for exceptions, not for laws." - Oscar Wilde.
