Review of A Woman of No Importance

A Woman of No Importance

Again I go to the reviews in the Guardian to figure out what will be going on in the play on Thursday night, NT Live's A Woman of No Importance. 

Actually the play doesn't belong to NT Live but to Oscar Wilde.

I am going to have to take some notes before I go tomorrow -- get the plot in my mind and the major characters.

I do like this line from the review when speaking about .... Best:  "Best takes a character who can easily appear wreathed in pious rectitude and turns her into a real woman who actively relishes her independence."

Now watching that is going to be fun!
