The Importance of Being Earnest

Sunday, March 23 at 2 p.m.
Josephine Louis Theater
20 Arts Circle Drive

By Oscar Wilde
Directed by Max Webster

While assuming the role of a dutiful guardian in the country, Jack lets loose in a town under a false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy adopts a similar facade. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.

Max Webster (Life of Pi) directs this hilarious story of identity, impersonation, and romance.

Filmed live from the National Theatre in London.
