“Ignorance is like a delicate exotic fruit; touch it and the bloom is gone.”

What happens when two pretty girls both fall in love with men they believe to be called Ernest? Will they learn that a rose by any other name still smells as sweet?

Oscar Wilde’s The Importance Of Being Earnest is a well-manicured comedy of handbags, button-holes and flying coat-tails, delivered in a new production specially conceived for an outdoor setting. 

Irina Brown directs this production of The Importance Of Being Earnest, the first time that work by Wilde has been produced at the Open Air theatre.
