The Constant Wife

Constance Middleton is a very rare creature – witty, intelligent and captivating. John, her husband, is having an affair with her best friend. John and Constance are totally devoted, but they have been married a rather long time. So what should she do? Neither the idea of accepting his infidelity nor throwing him out appeal to her; however, there may be another more effective and entertaining way of preserving her dignity…

Brimming with Somerset Maugham’s keen wit, The Constant Wife is astounding in its modernity, and according to London Theatre Online, “on par with Oscar Wilde at his sharpest.” The Constant Wife is a bittersweet, brilliant social comedy that shows how fragile society’s expectations are when confronted with honesty and logic.
