“It is very romantic to be in love. The very essence of romance is uncertainty.”
Widely considered one of the funniest plays in English, Wilde’s much-loved masterpiece The Importance Of Being Earnest throws love, logic and language into the air to make one of theatre’s most dazzling firework displays.
Jack, Algy, Gwendolyn and Cecily discover how un-smooth runs the course of true love, while Lady Bracknell keeps a baleful eye on the mayhem of manners.
Enjoy this classic comedy in the stunning historic garden of Selly Manor Museum. Join the talented Crescent Theatre for a very special outdoor performance. Bring along a picnic and enjoy summer evening entertainment.
