The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde

What name do you want your future husband to have? For Cecily and Gwendolen, that name is Ernest. Neither could tolerate a name like Algernon or Jack, but Ernest is a name you can trust. The perfect name for a perfect husband. Unfortunately, though they both think they are engaged to men named Ernest, they are, in fact, engaged to Algernon and Jack.

The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde is, quite simply, hilarious. It is fast-paced and fun to read (or watch). With plays on words and some silly twists, it is a play guaranteed to have you laughing out loud as learn just how important it really is to be earnest (Ernest).
