2021 – The Importance of Being Earnest
Oscar Wilde’s much loved masterpiece The Importance of Being Earnest, tells the story of two young gentlemen in London, each with a double-life, elaborate deceptions, and lovers entanglements.
Two bachelor friends, the adorable dandy Algernon ‘Algy’ Moncrieff and the utterly reliable John ‘Jack’ Worthing, lead double lives to court the attentions of the exquisitely desirable Gwendolyn Fairfax and Cecily Cardew. The gallants must then grapple with the riotous consequences of their deceptions, and with the formidable Lady Bracknell.
