The Mount Players invite you to come to their lovely Mountview Theatre in Macedon to sit back and enjoy Oscar Wilde’s classic play, The Importance of Being Earnest.
The set will delight you and the cast, dressed to kill, will entertain you! With a complimentary sherry on arrival, tea/coffee and treats at interval and a well-priced bar you are guaranteed to enjoy your outing.
Synopsis: Jack and Algy are very close friends who are living double lives. In the country, they’re respectable gentlemen but in the city, they’re playboys without a care in the world.
Their absurdly luxurious lifestyle is rudely interrupted when love enters the mix, and the pair struggle to keep track of who they’re pretending to be and when.
Silliness ensues with whimsical ingénues, jealous fiancées, indomitable dowagers, and the most famous handbag in theatre history.
First staged in 1895 and widely regarded as one of the best theatrical comedies ever written. Full of high farce, dazzling wordplay and hilariously unlikely situations.
The show runs from February 21 – March 9 with evening performances on Friday and Saturday at 8pm. Matinees Sundays at 2pm.
