The Importance of Being Earnest
by Oscar Wilde
Summer Outdoor Theatre
“It is a terrible thing for a man to find out suddenly that
all his life he has been speaking nothing but the truth.”

When two Victorian gentlemen assume the name of ‘Earnest’ to win the affections of two ladies, both determined to marry a man of that name, the scene is set. Join Rain or Shine Theatre Company for an evening of hilarious confusion in a world of handbags, perambulators, cucumber sandwiches, muffins, butlers, and of course, that theatrical tour de force – Lady Bracknell!
Pack your bubbly, chairs and picnics and witness the comical confusion of Oscar Wilde's hilarious masterpiece, The Importance of Being Earnest!
Audience Comments
“Rain or Shine at their maniacal best yet again. Another master-class in multiple role-playing, expert timing, rapid costume changes, and all played out on their trademark minimal set. Vintage Rain or Shine that’s utterly hilarious sending everyone contentedly away into the night.”
“We just love going to see travelling shows and this company has to be one of the best. Great acting, super friendly, lots of humour and a fascinating trip back in time. Many congratulations.”
