The Importance of Being Earnest

A new version of Oscar Wilde's legendary 'trivial comedy for serious people', to coincide with the new run at London's National Theatre.

A Trivial Comedy for Serious People

Being sensible can be excessively boring. At least Jack thinks so.

While assuming the role of dutiful guardian in the country, he lets loose in town under a false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy takes on a similar facade.

Unfortunately, living a double life has its drawbacks, especially when it comes to love. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.

A new edition of Oscar Wilde's legendary comedy, published to coincide with the revival at London's National Theatre, in November 2024.
