The Importance Of Being Earnest

We are so excited to bring this great classic to the stage! 
Whenever Jack Worthing slips away to London from his Hertfordshire estate he says he is going to see his (fictitious) wayward brother Earnest. Once there he keeps his privacy by calling himself Earnest - luckily so as his beloved Gwendolen declares she could only love an Earnest. Her cousin Algy is the one person who knows Jack's secret and one day he travels down to the estate, announcing himself to Jack's attractive ward Cecily as bad brother Earnest. Cecily is much taken with him and with his name, so on Jack's return home and Gwendolen's unexpected arrival it becomes clear there are both too many and too few Earnests earnestly courting.

This play will open on June 3 and continue three weekends----June 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 19 at 7:30 p.m. and on Sat., June 12 at 1:00 p.m.
