The Importance of Being Earnest April 20, 2013

Jack and Algernon, two dashing young men-about-town, lead double lives with the help of "Mr. Bunbury" and "Earnest." Jack's imaginary brother, Earnest, provides an excuse to frolic in town while Algernon's imaginary friend, Bunbury, allows him to take adventures in the country. However, their deceptions eventually cross paths when both men pretend their name is Earnest in order to impress their lady loves, Gwendolyn and Cecily, as well as Gwendolyn's formidable mother, Lady Bracknell. This timeless tale is one of the funniest comedies in the English language from the brilliant Oscar Wilde.
