Additional casting has been announced for the L.A. Theatre Works' production of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, to be presented at the Skirball Cultural Center, June 17-21. Michael Hackett will direct the performances, which will be recorded for broadcast on LATW's nationally syndicated radio theater series.
Subtitled "A Trivial Comedy for Serious People," The Importance of Being Earnest is Wilde's last and perhaps best-known play. In addition to the previously announced Charles Busch as Lady Bracknell, the cast will feature Emily Bergl, Neil Dickson, Jill Gascoine, James Marsters, Christopher Neame, and Sarah Zimmerman.
Busch is the author and star of such plays as The Lady in Question, Red Scare on Sunset, Vampire Lesbians of Sodom, and his latest, The Third Story. His Broadway play The Tale of the Allergist's Wife won the Outer Circle Critics John Gassner Award, and received a Tony nomination for Best Play. He is also the recipient of a 2003 special Drama Desk Award for career achievement.
