THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST asks the age old question, “What’s in a name?” In the play, men woo under various aliases, while women clench teeth over tea and biscuits. This satire of the upper crust features witty dialogue and memorable characters, and was recently made into a popular movie starring Colin Firth, Rupert Everett, Dame Judi Dench and Reese Witherspoon.
