The Importance of Being Earnest

Kentucky Shakespeare presents our first production on the Actors Theatre of Louisville stage this January, with a perfect post-holiday pick-me-up! Oscar Wilde’s delightful comedy, subtitled A Trivial Comedy for Serious People, sparkles with vibrant characters, mistaken identities, and farcical antics. When bachelors Jack and Algernon both create alter egos named “Ernest,” the lies quickly spiral into chaos, hilarity, cucumber sandwiches, and Victorian handbags. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience what the London Telegraph calls “the most perfect comedy in the English language.”
