What to expect

The Importance of Being Earnest is Oscar Wilde's most celebrated play — a sharp, witty comedy that satirizes Victorian society's obsession with propriety, status, and marriage. The plot follows two friends, Jack and Algernon, who invent fictional personas to escape social obligations and pursue romance. Chaos and hilarity ensue as their lies unravel and identities are mistaken. This sparkling comedy of manners showcases Wilde's trademark wit and irony, exposing the absurdities of upper-class conventions with elegance and charm. At once light-hearted and deeply clever, the play remains one of the most beloved works in English theatre.
