Jack Worthing wants to marry the elegant Gwendolyn Fairfax, but must first win over her formidable mother, Lady Bracknell. Meanwhile, Jack\u2019s charmingly deceitful friend Algernon Moncrieff has his eye on Cecily, Jack\u2019s ward\u2014as well as a few secrets of his own. Between mistaken identities, alter egos, and sharp wit, Wilde\u2019s timeless comedy skewers romance, society, and the absurdities of British Victorian life in a brilliantly farcical romp.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Content Warnings\/Age Recommendations<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">This performance is recommended for ages 12 and older.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Themes<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The characters in this play put more importance on appearance than on\u00a0their true feelings,\u00a0wants\u00a0and needs.
