The Importance Of Being Earnest
by Oscar Wilde
13th - 21st July 2007
Directed by David Harrold
One of the funniest comedies in the English language. Wilde masterfully combines mistaken identity and social comment with hilarious consequences.
Jack regularly flees his country home for London with the excuse of tending to his scandalous and nonexistent-younger brother Ernest. When his best friend, Algernon, learns of this deception and that Jack has a beautiful young ward named Cecily whom he keeps stashed away in the country-he sets off to meet her, pretending that he is Ernest.
