The Importance of Being EarnestBy Oscar WildeDirected by Steven DennisFebruary 22 to March 5, 2023This wildly entertaining comedy sparkles with dazzling wordplay and hilarious situations. In the 1890s, carefree bachelor Jack poses as a man named Ernest so he can escape from the country to the city for romantic escapades.

Silliness ensues with whimsical ingenues, jealous fiancs, indomitable dowagers, and the most famous handbag in theatre history.
