Directions & Parking

A champagne-fizz comedy where two charming young bachelors invent elaborate alter egos to escape social obligations, impress formidable women, and generally wreak havoc on polite society. What follows is a whirlwind of secret romances, cucumber sandwiches, handbag scandals, and razor-sharp wit as Oscar Wilde skewers Victorian manners with elegance and absurdity.

Support the Weinberg

The Weinberg Center is an institution of value to Frederick. It is a vital part of the economic life of Downtown Frederick, attracting more than 85,000 patrons annually who visit shops, restaurants, and local stores. Furthermore, the Weinberg provides educational programs to over 8,000 Frederick county school children each year. And the Weinberg continues to bring world-class performing artists to the heart of downtown Frederick for our community to enjoy. We are committed to keeping ticket prices affordable for our community. So to cover the costs of the arts we present, the Weinberg — like theaters nationally — must find other sources of support. Please consider making a contribution to this historic theater.
