The Importance of Being Earnest

Antic Disposition presents

The Importance of Being Earnest

by Oscar Wilde

Jack Worthing has created an imaginary brother named Ernest, who frequently requires his presence in town - the perfect escape from tedious tea parties.

Algernon Moncrieff has invented a fictitious friend named Bunbury, who regularly summons him to the country - an excellent excuse to avoid dreary dinners.

However, these seemingly harmless deceptions cause colossal confusion when both men make proposals of marriage. But who, precisely, is engaged to whom?

Oscar Wilde's much-loved romantic comedy is brought to exuberant life in Antic Disposition's acclaimed production, featuring, in a curiously cunning twist, James Pellow as formidable potential mother-in-law, Lady Bracknell.
