Review by Joerg Uhlmann

The album "The Importance of Being Oscar" by Micheál Mac Liammóir, directed by Hilton Edwards, is a true masterpiece that showcases the brilliance of Oscar Wilde. Through a series of monologues, Liammóir brings Wilde's wit and wisdom to life, capturing the essence of the man and his work.

The album is a delightful mix of Wilde's most famous quotes and lesser-known gems, presented in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. Liammóir's performance is outstanding, bringing Wilde's words to life with a charm and charisma that is impossible to resist.

The direction by Hilton Edwards is also exceptional, providing the perfect backdrop for Liammóir's performance. The production values are high, with excellent sound quality and a well-crafted script that is both engaging and informative.

About Micheál Mac Liammóir Directed By Hilton Edwards

Micheál Mac Liammóir (25 October 1899  6 March 1978), born Alfred Willmore, was an English-born Irish actor, dramatist, impresario, writer, poet and painter. As Alfred Willmore, he was one of the leading child actors on the English stage, in the company of Noël Coward. He studied painting at London's Slade School of Art, continuing to paint throughout his lifetime. In the 1920s he travelled all over Europe. Willmore was captivated by Irish culture: he learnt Irish which he spoke and wrote fluently and he changed his name to an Irish version, presenting himself in Ireland as a descendant of Irish Catholics from Cork. Later in his life, he wrote three autobiographies in Irish and translated them into English. Mac Liammóir wrote and performed a one-man show, The Importance of Being Oscar, based on the life and work of Oscar Wilde. The Telefís Éireann production won him a Jacob's Award in December 1964. It was later filmed by the BBC with Mac Liammóir reprising the role.
