Oscar Wildes wildly entertaining comedy sparkles with dazzling wordplay and hilariously unlikely situations. This trivial comedy for serious people features two carefree bachelors, Jack and Algernon, each with a carefully hidden double life. But when Algernon discovers that Jack has been posing as a man named Ernest to escape to the city, he promptly travels to Jacks country estate to pose as the fictional figure himself! Silliness ensues with whimsical ingnues, jealous fiances, indomitable dowagers, and the most famous handbag in theatre history.
