The Importance of Being Earnest


By Oscar Wilde

Directed by Shawn Douglass

Featuring Artistic Associates Greg Matthew Anderson, Annabel Armour, Linda Gillum, and David Darlow

Presented November 24, 2010 — January 9, 2011


Charming bachelors Jack and Algernon lead double lives in order to pursue two proper young ladies, while avoiding obligatory lunches with terrifying aunts. When they are caught in their public lies, the result is one of the funniest plays ever written. Wilde dishes up delicious criticisms of identity, manners and the customs of courtship, delivered with his outrageous wit and the sting of laughter.
