The Importance of Being Earnest

Hamlet has been a success with a positive review in the West today and now we do Earnest! THREE SHOWS ONLY Fri 28 Aug 8pm Sat 29 Aug 2pm Sat 29 Aug 8pm Subiaco Arts Centre, 180 Hamersley Rd, Subiaco. Friday is pretty full - but I am sure there will be tix at the door for all performances. Jack - Dan Luxton Algenon - Ben Russell Lady Bracknell - Craig Williams as you have never seen him before! Gwendoline - Rhoda Lopez Cecily - Whitney Richards Miss Prism - Angelique Malcolm Lane/Dr Chasuuable - Stephen Lee The Importance of Being Earnest - dirrected by Stephen Lee Two men, neither named Earnest, court young ladies determined to marry only a man of that name! Wilde’s brilliantly funny and incisive comedy, sparkling with witty and memorable dialogue, presents a lunatic world where values are turned upside down and the trivial is elevated to supreme importance. Who did eat the last cucumber sandwich? Whose dead brother turns up for lunch? And who was that baby left in a railway station locker in a handbag? Towering over the chaos, is the terrifying figure of the redoubtable Lady Bracknell: “she’s a monster, without being a myth...which is rather unfair...” Following the statewide success of their ‘hilarious’ interpretation of Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, Bare Naked and Class Act Theatre companies present one of the world’s favourite comedies. Earnest will also be performing in Dunsborough and Margaret River 12th & 11th Sept. See www.barenakedtheatre.com.au for more details
