Beechworth Theatre Company Presents The Importance of Being Earnest

Beechworth Theatre Company proudly presents Oscar Wilde's wittiest and most famous work 'The Important of Being Earnest: A trivial play for serious people'! The last of his 'drawing-room' plays, and arguably the best of Wilde's satirical works, 'Earnest' parodies contemporary dramatic norms and satirises late-Victorian manners. Celebrated for its wit and repartee, this wonderful, farcical comedy, depicts the tangled affairs of two young 'men-about-town' who lead double lives to evade unwanted social obligations, both assuming the name Ernest while wooing the two young women of their affections. Come and enjoy the wit, the fun, the farce of 'The Importance of Being Earnest'!
