PERFORMANCE DATES:
Presented by Shakespeare 70
Oscar Wilde at his very best! If you haven’t seen his favorite “trivial comedy for serious people,” you won’t want to miss this opportunity to join Shakespeare ‘70 for some high society fun. Presiding over the verbal merriment is Lady Bracknell, possibly the most comically domineering aunt in stage history. Ally and Jack try to be Earnest, while wooing Gwendolyn and Cecile, taking the play through some unlikely plot twists. By the way, if you have seen the show before, you will love the chance to renew acquaintance with those lively characters and the witty dialogue. PG

When the Emperor ultimately honors her for her long and distinguished military service, she declines the position of high office he offers, and returns home to her beloved family.
