The play is known for its witty dialogue, clever plot twists, and satirical commentary on the hypocrisy of Victorian society. Overall, Lady Windermere's Fan is a timeless classic that continues to captivate audiences with its sharp humor and insightful social commentary.There is not a GOOD woman in London who would not applaud me.
