Oscar Wilde鈥檚 鈥淭he Importance of Being Earnest鈥� is the last of his four drawing-room plays, the previous three being 鈥淟ady Windermere鈥檚 Fan鈥�, 鈥淎 Woman Of No Importance鈥� and 鈥淎n Ideal Husband鈥�, written a couple of hundred years ago! This farcical comedy depicts the tangled affairs of two young 鈥榤en about town鈥� who lead double lives to evade unwanted social obligations, both assuming the name 鈥楨rnest鈥� while wooing the two young women of their affections. The play, celebrated for its wit and repartee, parodies contemporary dramatic norms, gently satirizes late Victorian manners, and introduces 鈥� in addition to the two pairs of young lovers 鈥� the formidable 鈥楲ady Bracknell鈥� 鈥� you must have heard of her! A luminary of Albuquerque theatre holding the director鈥檚 baton, Mario Cabrera has chosen six very well-known actors 鈥� Georgia Athearn, Nicee Brown, Clair Gardner, Jerry Hines, Bailey Hunt, Scott Sharot and Michael Weppler - to delight the audience, along with M. Cabrera, as 鈥楲ady Bracknell鈥�! Performances 7.30pm Fridays and Saturdays. Additional performances Thursday Dec 11 and 18 at 7.30pm ($10 tix available). Saturday Dec 13 - 2pm only.
