THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST
by Oscar Wilde
adapted from Ferenc Molnรกrโs "Play at the Castle"
directed by Mark Shanahan
October 28 โ November 15, 2025
Oscar Wildeโs most famous comedy comes to the Playhouse for the first time!
Mistaken identities, secret engagements, a lost handbag, and one very formidable aunt set the stage for this classic, fast-paced, delightfully ridiculous romp through Victorian society. Two wildly eligible bachelors bend the truth in their pursuit of love, only to land in a web of hilarious complications (and far too many cucumber sandwiches). Full of razor-sharp wit and larger-than-life characters, this sparkling satire gleefully skewers love, marriage, and high society. Wildeโs gift for language and outrageous humor is on full display in this joyously theatrical masterpiece. Join us this fall โ and get Wilde at the Playhouse!
