The Importance of Being Earnest continues Thur Aug 13 (Discount Night) thru Sun Aug 16 at Kitchen Theatre Company
Subtitled ‘A Trivial Comedy for Serious People,’ Wilde’s late Victorian farce has charmed audiences for 130 years. Incognita updates it to England of the roaring 20s.
Jack Worthing has invented a brother named Ernest whose guise he takes when fleeing his country obligations for London. Gwendolyn Fairfax has fallen in love with Earnest. Her cousin Algernon Moncrieff has invented an invalid friend when he wishes to flee London for scapes in the country. Meanwhile Jack’s young ward, Cecily has romantic fantasies about the wicked Ernest. But will anyone end up with their intended against the will of the redoubtable Lady Bracknell?
