A timeless comedy of manners, The Importance of Being Earnest is a satirical exploration of Victorian society’s preoccupation with appearances and social expectations. Jack Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff lead double lives to escape societal constraints, but their deception leads to mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and hilariously witty misunderstandings. Oscar Wilde's sharp wit and clever dialogue make this one of the most beloved comedies of all time.
