The Importance of Being Earnest

Wilde’s classic comedy of manners, first performed in 1895, is regarded by many critics and scholars as being the wittiest play in the English language. Set in England during the Victorian era, the play focuses on Jack and Algernon, two young men in love with girls both determined to marry someone named Earnest. This play explores the nature of marriage and the constraints of morality using light-hearted satire and dazzling humor.
