The Doha Players presents The Importance of Being Earnest

In the brief but clever comedy The Importance of Being Earnest, two men attempt to see how long they can go without realizing they are Ernest. Babies are discovered in handbags, identities are confused, and chaos results. In one of the most well-known plays ever written, expect entwined loves, a ton of laughter, and shocking revelations set in the late 19th century.

This is a timeless comedy about relationships, dysfunctional families, class, and gender that is vividly retold. The fictitious personas that both men created to hide their covert actions complicate matters, in addition to the disapproval of Gwendolen’s mother, the powerful Lady Bracknell.
