THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST (BY OSCAR WILDE)
NOVEMBER 7, 2011, 7:30 PM
The Aquila Theatre will offer a delightful and tantalizing production of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, promising to overflow with humor, elegance, and romantic comedy. The New York Times has described Aquila's productions as "Gleefully engaging...almost unbearable fun...directed with inspiration and a beautiful use of physical humor." Crammed full of larger-than-life characters and memorable satirical humor, Aquila's creative staging and sparkling flare for language make this production one not to be missed.
