The Importance of Being Earnest

O'Reilly Theater

Pittsburgh, PA 15222

Step into a world of sparkling conversation, romance, and sheer absurdity! Oscar Wilde’s wonderfully entertaining “trivial comedy for serious people” introduces two debonair bachelors, Jack and Algernon, who each lead a hidden double life. When a weekend in the country gives their alter egos the chance to win the hearts of two society ladies, they learn that keeping track of their lavish web of lies may be a bit harder than they realize. The plot twists and turns will at once keep you on the edge of your seat and doubled over in fits of laughter.

Rating: PG for romantic innuendo, allusion to alcohol and smoking.  Suitable for most audience with guidance urged for pre-teens.
