Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest filmed at London’s Vaudeville Theatre as part of Dominic Dromgoole’s Classic Spring Wilde season.
The Importance of Being Earnest
Theater
An earnest young American woman, a louche English lord, and an innocent young chap join a house party of fin de siècle fools andgrotesques. Nearby a woman lives, cradling a long buried secret. Wilde’s marriage of glittering wit and Ibsenite drama create a vivid new theatrical voice.
