The Importance of Being Earnest

LMU Theatre Arts Presents The Importance of Being Earnest, Feb. 13-22

Loyola Marymount University’s Theatre Arts program presents “The Importance of Being Earnest,” from Feb. 13-22, directed by Katharine Noon, professor of theatre arts.

Written by Oscar Wilde, “The Importance of Being Earnest” tells the story of two young gentlemen in London, who each live a double life, creating elaborate deceptions to find some balance in their lives. Wilde's brilliant comedy captures, with wit and charm, the absurdity and delight of the Victorian Age while capturing the struggle of passionate lovers trying to conform to expectations and, in the most roundabout and delightfully funny way possible, love who they wish and live how they want.

The production will take place at LMU’s Strub Theatre, located at 1 LMU Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90045.
