By Oscar Wilde
A country gentleman named Jack maintains a double life in London as Ernest to escape the responsibility of being guardian to his niece, Cecily, and to pursue the desirable Gwendolyn. After telling his friend Algernon about his double life Algernon takes a page out of Jack’s book and creates his own alter ego, Bunbury, to avoid social engagements. As the four lives become intertwined a series of hilarious misunderstandings of deception and mistaken identity ensue in this farcical satire of Victorian society.
Please be prepared with a short, comedic monologue.
