In a world of witty banter and societal expectations, two bachelors craft elaborate double lives to escape the constraints of Victorian propriety. Jack invents a fictional brother, "Ernest," as an excuse for city escapades, while Algernon adopts the same name to charm Jack's young ward, Cecily. The scheme soon spirals out of control as mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and absurd misunderstandings pile up. With dazzling wit and sharp dialogue, the play transforms trivial deceptions into a sparkling comedy that skewers the very conventions its characters cling to.
Widely regarded as Oscar Wilde's masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest redefined the comedy of manners with its bold satire and playful charm. First staged in 1895, it cleverly critiqued the rigid class expectations and hypocrisies of Victorian society. Its themes of identity, marriage, and deception remain strikingly relevant, and its fearless mockery of superficiality ensures its place as one of the most beloved and enduring plays in English literature.
