A comedy by Oscar Wilde
Directed by Katie Bruno

Hold onto your handbags! Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest is a sparkling comedy of mistaken identities, secret romances, and high-society hijinks. When two charming bachelors invent alter egos to escape their responsibilities, their double lives lead to outrageous misunderstandings and delightfully tangled romances.

Filled with razor-sharp wit, unforgettable characters, and plenty of romantic mischief, this beloved comedy takes a hilarious look at love, marriage, and the absurdities of polite society.

Presented in partnership by the Nashville Shakespeare Festival and Belmont University's College of Music & Performing Arts.
