Alice Scovell is delighted to have liberated five of Wilde’s characters— preserved in amber since 1895— to experience the trials and joys of 1902. Although not a longtime playwright, Scovell has been a lifelong writer. Two of her children’s novels— Engraved In Stone and The Spirit of Chatsworth Mansion— have been published, as well as many magazine articles. An ardent theater buff, she was for years the “All Time” Leader of Show-Score reviews. A lawyer by training— but not in practice— the mother of three lives in Manhattan.
