THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST (comedy)
Tuesday 31st January until Saturday 11th February 2012.
In a country house ideal for a bunbury, young people fall into and out
of love, watched over by an imperious aunt. Names and lost property are
important, the line perhaps less so.
Faithful to Wilde’s hilarious text of 1895 but with very modern twists
including iPhones and walkie-talkies, the production has received rave
reviews at the Old Red Lion Theatre for its bold and fresh take on the
play.
Cast includes Harriet Ballard, Simon Grujich, Stephanie Lane, James
McNicholas, Rachel Nussbaum, Owen Roberts, Morgan Thomas and Janet
Jefferies as Lady Bracknell. The production marks the first ever West
End transfer for the Old Red Lion Theatre, and is directed by Artistic
Director Henry Filloux-Bennett.
