Overview

Revel in the Wit and Folly

Wealthy gentlemen Jack and Algernon have chosen to lead double lives to evade the tedium of polite society. However, when they attempt to win the love of two women who declare they will only love a man called Ernest – chaos begins. The Importance of Being Earnest is a tale of mistaken identities, rapid–fire wit, and cucumber sandwiches. Enjoy an evening of theatre laughing out loud. There may not be a funnier, more socially insightful play chock–full of eccentric characters than this masterpiece by Oscar Wilde.
