ELORA – Elora Community Theatre continues its dynamic 50th season with Oscar Wilde’s classic play The Importance of Being Earnest.
Scott William directs this uproarious farce about two young couples in the pursuit of love that upends social conventions with wildly subversive humor.
One of the funniest comedies ever written, Oscar Wilde’s most popular play has entertained theatregoers for over a century.
Everyone is in love with Earnest, the irresistible bad boy of London society. The trouble is, Earnest doesn’t exist.
Oscar Wilde fills this uproarious farce with delicious wit, as two pairs of young lovers scramble to untangle their own web of lies and win the approval of the imperious Lady Bracknell.
Earnest is a wildly entertaining play that sparkles with dazzling wordplay and hilariously unlikely situations.
It has been called the most perfect comedy in the English language.
Opens May 5
Elora Community Theatre will present The Importance of Being Earnest, written by Oscar Wilde, May 5 to 7 and May 12 to 14 at the Fergus Grand Theatre.
Tickets are available by calling the box office (519) 787-1981 or online www.fergusgrandtheatre.ca.
