The Importance of Being Earnest follows two upper-class Victorian gentlemen, Jack and Algernon, who lead double lives by inventing fictitious alter egos to escape from their social responsibilities and pursue pleasure. Jack pretends to be an unreliable brother named Ernest to get away to London, while Algernon “Bunburies” by inventing an invalid friend to visit the country. The story becomes tangled when Jack proposes to Gwendolen, who only wants to marry someone named Ernest, and when Algernon, posing as Ernest, falls for Jack’s ward, Cecily. Mistaken identities, outrageous coincidences, and general hilarity ensue.
