Event Description

A production of Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of being Earnest from the National Theatre, directed by Max Webster.

Three-time Olivier Award-winner Sharon D Clarke is joined by Ncuti Gatwa (star of Doctor Who and Sex Education) in this joyful reimagining of Oscar Wilde’s most celebrated comedy.

While assuming the role of a dutiful guardian in the country, Jack lets loose in town under a false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy adopts a similar facade. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.

Max Webster, whose previous work includes Life of Pi, directs this hilarious story of identity, impersonation and romance, filmed live from the National Theatre in London for broadcast in cinemas.
