The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde
Advertisement
"A trivial comedy for serious people"
What do you do when society has expectations of you, but you want to be someone else?
One solution is to live two lives - but, in a comedy, that tends to cause lots of chaos before anyone gets to live happily ever after.
Although the play was written in 1895, our image-conscious era is just as "trivial" as theirs. Earnest is a modern classic, widely considered the wittiest play ever written in English.
Don't miss Covenant College's favorite play - the sixth production (that we know of) since the college's founding - featuring Professor Camille Hallstrom as the iconic Lady Bracknell.
NOTES: The Wednesday, November 11, preview performance is free for everyone! Reservation required. The role of Lady Bracknell will be played by a student understudy for the preview performance and the Saturday matinee. Covenant alumni who were involved with theatre are invited to a reception to celebrate 25 years of academic theatre at Covenant at a reception between 5-7pm on Saturday, November 14. Email [email protected] for info and to RSVP.
