The Importance of Being Earnest

Presented by Coal Creek Theater of Louisville

Coal Creek Theater of Louisville presents Oscar Wilde's classic comedy, "The Importance of Being Earnest," directed by Janine Ann Kehlenbach at the Louisville Center for the Arts from October 25-November 9.

The Story: John (Jack) Worthing, who typically resides in the English countryside with his ward, Cecily Cardew, escapes to London every so often under the guise of meeting his fictitious brother, "Ernest." In reality there is no Ernest, and a the real reason for all his trips to London is that Jack is in love with the beautiful Gwendolen Fairfax, cousin of Jack's close friend, Algernon Moncrieff. Jack's chief obstacle to Gwendolen's affection is her mother, Lady Bracknell, who demands proof of Jack's lineage. When he returns to the country to find the necessary proof, Algernon follows him and unexpectedly shows up at Jack's country home as the non-existent brother, Ernest. There he proceeds to fall in love with Jack's charming ward, Cecily. This hilarious farce is a masterpiece of brilliant word play and riotous reversals.
