The Importance of Being Earnest
by City Theatre Company
Apr. 05 - Apr. 06 (2023)
This celebrated classic follows the romantic misadventures of a pair of English cads who devise a double life in order to impress the strong-willed women whose hearts they hope to win. But when it is revealed that both friends are not entirely who they appear to be, a madcap comedy of teatime pitfalls, unexpected antics, and hilarious revelations ensues. Wilde’s delicious confection dazzles with ironic wit, comic invention, razor-sharp subtlety, and bold servings of characters who all discover the importance of being earnest.
