Emerald Theatre is delighted to announce its upcoming production of Oscar Wilde's beloved comedy, The Importance of Being Earnest. This sparkling satire of society will be performed in in local gardens and parks with our partner organizations. 

The Importance of Being Earnest  follows the hilarious escapades of two charming bachelors: Jack Worthing, who  invents a fictional alter ego named "Ernest" to escape social obligations and and Algernon Moncrieff, who also uses the name "Ernest," as they both woo their respective love interests, Gwendolen and Cecily. Their deceptions lead to a whirlwind of mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and laugh-out-loud chaos, all while Wilde skewers the superficiality and hypocrisy of the upper class with his signature wit and razor-sharp social commentary.
