The Importance Of Being Earnest

Tuesday 20th - Saturday 24th September

Oscar Wilde’s genius humour meets contemporary culture in this theatrical rollercoaster packed with shade, wit and plenty of gags.

 

2021 RTST Sir Peter Hall Director Award-winner, Denzel Westley-Sanderson breathes fresh new life into Wilde’s sharpest and wittiest comedy: The Importance of Being Earnest.

This is a classic satire, vibrantly retold about dysfunctional families, class, gender and sexuality.

Supported by a grant from Royal Theatrical Support Trust.
