Our production will be cast gender fluid to further expose the rigidity of gender roles and expectations in turn-of-the-century culture… and today. This farcical comedy about mistaken identities, secret engagements, and lovers’ entanglements still has bite, as it lampoons the Victorian upper class and exposes their hypocrisy. When all four arrive at Jack’s country home on the same weekend, pandemonium breaks loose! Jack has wooed Gwendolen as “Earnest”, while Algernon has also posed as “Earnest” to win the heart of Cecily, Jack’s ward.
Oscar Wilde’s “Trivial Comedy for Serious People” takes another turn!Ĭecily and Gwendolen are both in love with the same mythical suitor. Performed at the Bartell Theatre on the Evjue stage
