A Woman of No Importance is a four-act society comedy by Oscar Wilde, set during a single day at an English country-house gathering. Beneath the epigrams and drawing-room wit lie questions of reputation, motherhood and a woman's place in Victorian society. It is worth listening to for its carefully balanced dialogue and the quiet seriousness under the comedy.
