The Importance of Being Earnest

The road to true love is delightfully tangled in The Importance of Being Earnest. Jack Worthing wants to marry the elegant Gwendolyn Fairfax, but must first win over her formidable mother, Lady Bracknell. Meanwhile, Jack’s charmingly deceitful friend Algernon Moncrieff has his eye on Cecily, Jack’s ward—and a few secrets of his own. Between mistaken identities, alter egos, and sharp wit, Wilde’s timeless comedy skewers romance, society, and the absurdities of Victorian life in a brilliantly farcical romp.
