| Details: | Oscar Wilde’s most produced play concentrates all his incredible wit and observation into a dazzling satire of Victorian attitudes. Two wealthy and bored young men are courting a pair of pampered and silly young women while each of them pretends to be a man named Ernest. All the tricks of romantic comedy and farce come into play – love, reputations, social standing and fortune. The text is chock-full of the witty epigrams that are Wilde’s claim to immortality – memes of the 19th century. It is remarkable how the outrageously funny characters of long ago will remind you of people and attitudes of today.
