This "trivial comedy for serious people" is just the antidote for our trying times. First performed in 1895 and featuring broadly witty waggery, memorable characters, and mistaken identities, The Importance of Being Earnest is Oscar Wilde's most enduringly popular play. The farce focuses on two bachelors who invent fake personas to escape their social obligations. Romantic complications and hilarious revelations about true identities and the insignificance of marriage and reputation ensues.
Presented by No Dogs in the Kitchen Theatre Company
