Saw #ImportanceOfBeingEarnest in London last night. #StephenFry was an excellent cantankerous old dame in full Victorian dress. The show is pure joy. Don’t miss it. The finale was something else!

Just been to see the #NTL production of #ImportanceOfBeingEarnest at my local cinema. What a joy. Such a good way to access great theatre locally and on a budget.
Ncuti Gatwa dressed in a beautiful light gree suit with an emerald bow tie and matching waistcoat, but he is not wearing trousers, rather, undergarments and shoes and socks with sock suspenders. He looks at us inquisitively as he climbs through a window in the pink wall behind him. Text The Importance of being earnest by oscar wilde"
Still not seen @National Theatre's delightful #ImportanceOfBeingEarnest? Tomorrow is your last chance to catch this rip-roaring comedy of manners at the Pavilion!

Link to the script for "The Importance of Being Earnest" by Oscar Wilde, 1893, at the Internet Archive. Publication, 1899. Every bit as much fun to read as watch.

Earnest/Jack/John Worthing (Michael Redgrarve) proposes to Gwendolen Fairfax (Joan Greenwood) who wears a dress of fluorescent green.
Earnest/Jack/John Worthing (Michael Redgrarve) in tennis whites, appropriate for his christening, in order to be wed to Gwendolen Fairfax (Joan Greenwood) who is now dressed in pink. In the foreground is Edith Evans as Lady Augusta Bracknell, dressed in forest green. While Joan Greenwood tends to seize attention, deservedly so, Edith Evans is every bit as magnificent a force as an actress here.
Margaret Rutherford is wonderful as Miss Laetitia Prism. She is here recounting one of her more distressing bouts of distraction, which proves the plot bedrock for the play.
Algernon Moncrieff (Michael Denison) and Cecily Cardew (Dorothy Tutin) who he meets and within a few minutes is proposing to her, which is not surprising to her as she has already written in her diary about their engagement, and has a box of letters she wrote to her, from him, which was required as they'd never met and so she was forced to write them on her own.
We were in need of comedy, so I turned to Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest" (1952), which Marty had never seen. Cast to perfection under the direction of Anthony Asquith who also directed "Pygmalion" 1938.

Just saw the fabulous “Importance of Being Earnest” at the National Theatre. It’s so god damned funny even now. But this production took it up a notch!! As an adopted child myself I’ve always loved this play! Call me sentimental!!! #oscarwilde #nationaltheatre #southbank #importanceofbeingearnest
Max Webster's #ImportanceOfBeingEarnest at the National Theatre is one of the best reinventions of a classic you'll ever see. True comedy genius. wp.me/pKXAt-bpV ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me!
Thank you to all the cast crew and staff at the national theatre A wonderful start to Nye @nationaltheatre.org.uk #importanceofbeingearnest #doctorwho #nye
Colourful tableau with cast grouped round a table, while Jack Worthing, in a white suit, stands on it with arms held high.
Delicious, fizzing, glamorous #ImportanceOfBeingEarnest at the #NationalTheatre. Carnival colours and gleeful wit lit up our December night 😊
Splendid cast make Wilde's wit shine in #ImportanceOfBeingEarnest at NT. First and last tableau breath fresh air into well-known classic. Spectacular library. #AmandaLawrence and #RichardCant so moving as Prism and pastor.
Here is a picture of a production drawing for the lost 1946 BBC production of The #ImportanceofBeingEarnest , starring Margaret Rutherford (“a **handbag**!?”), which I just bought. Previously, it was owned by the iconic BBC TV producer, Cecil Madden.
Brilliant night at @nationaltheatre.bsky.social #importanceofbeingearnest boldly, imaginatively and hilariously tweaked for C21st. Beg, borrow, steal a ticket (it’s sold out🥲). Or see in at the cinema in February.
