Ernest is Jack. Ernest loves Gwendolen but she doesn’t know he’s Jack. Algernon is also Ernest but he loves Cecily. Both Cecily and Gwendolen are particularly fond of the name Ernest, which is good for Ernest but is a problem for both Jack and Algernon. Then there’s Gwendolen’s mother and Algernon’s aunt, Lady Bracknell. She disapproves. Of everything mostly…except cucumber sandwiches…
Too many characters and not enough actors will see this “Trivial Comedy for Serious People” brought to life by just three performers in a comedic and potentially hat-astrophic production. In a similarly choreographed, character-swapping style to our critically acclaimed productions of The Importance of Being Earnest (2018), The Three Musketeers (2020), A Comedy of Errors (2022) and Persuasion (2024) audiences will love this truly unique adaptation!
This is an outdoor performance and will go ahead in all weather conditions. Please dress appropriately.
Seating is not provided. Please bring your own chair or picnic blanket.
