The Importance Of Being Earnest UK Tour 2018

The Importance Of Being Earnest UK Tour

The Original Theatre Company will present a UK tour of Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest in 2018.

Starting at the Yvonne Arnaud Theatre, Guildford on 24 January 2018 the show will star Gwen Taylor (Coronation Street, Calendar Girls UK Tour) as Lady Bracknell alongside Susan Penhaligon (Cabaret UK Tour, Upstairs Downstairs) as Miss Prism.

Oscar Wilde’s greatly admired and much loved comedy The Importance Of Being Earnest follows Jack Worthing’s endeavours to marry Algernon’s cousin, the beautiful Gwendolen. But first he must convince the fearsome Lady Bracknell of his respectability. Wilde’s classic play looks at the clash of town and country in a story of romance, identity, perambulators and capacious handbags.

The Importance Of Being Earnest will be directed by The Original Theatre Company’s Artistic Director, Alastair Whatley, with set and costume designs by Gabriella Slade, sound and music by Giles Thomas and lighting by Alan Valentine. The UK tour is produced by Tom Hackney for The Original Theatre Company.
