Importance of Being Earnest

"I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train."
¿ Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest.

Crafted at the height of his powers, Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest is a brilliantly written three act drama rife with witty jokes and ingenious one-liners which still feel as fresh and insightful today as when they were first written, over a century ago in 1895. The play's structure continues to be studied by academics and the play itself read and enjoyed the world over for its sheer entertainment value.
