ACTC presents The Importance of Being Earnest: A WILDE New Musical

About the Show

  Based on “The Importance of Being Earnest” by Oscar Wilde
Music by Bret Simmons
Book & Lyrics by David Howard
Directed by Susan K. Berkompas

With its mistaken identities, sudden engagements and outrageous
coincidences, Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest has
delighted audiences for over a century and is undoubtedly one of the
funniest plays ever written. And how best to bring this timeless comedy into
its next century than by adding the one thing it lacks-music! This delightful
new musical illuminates Wilde’s play through songs filled with his biting,
cynical wit; brilliant social commentary; and soaring heart-felt romance.
