Synopsis

The Importance of being earnest follows the story of Jack Worthing & Algernon Moncrieff and their talents for slightly bending the truth. Jack, when he is in the city pretends to be Ernest to escape the dullness of country life; Algernon pretends to be visiting a terminally ill friend Mr. Bunbury to escape the hectic city life.

When Algernon finds out the location of Jack's country estate, he pretends to be Jack's wicked brother Ernest and pays young Cecily a visit. Cecily is in love with Ernest but she has never met him. To add to this Gwendolyn also pays the estate a visit, looking for her Ernest (Jack).

Just when all misunderstandings are corrected, Lady Bracknell arrives to thwart the plans of our two happy couples.
