  3. The Importance of Being Earnest


The Importance of Being Earnest is a hilarious, pointed comedy of manners and a classic of British theatre. Jack Worthing presents himself as Ernest in London in order to court Lady Gwendolen Fairfax and avoid the responsibilities of his country life; back at home, he tells his ward Cecily that Ernest is merely his neer-do-well brother. When Gwendolens cousin Algernon calls Jack out on this, the men discover that theyve both been leading double lives--but now Gwendolen only wants to marry someone whose name is Ernest. Meanwhile, Algernon travels to woo Cecily, who is very eager to meet the dastardly Ernest, and the women clash when they realize theyve both been promised Ernest Worthing. Mistaken identities, broken engagements, and mysterious figures from the past combine for wall-to-wall laughs and an earnest, pleasing love story.
