SEE: THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST AT MJM

Friday-Sunday, May 26th-28th, The Importance of Being Ernest at Morris-Jumel Mansion, 65 Jumel Terrace at 161st Street.  This spring, the Morris-Jumel Mansion in upper Manhattan will present an original production of “The Importance of Being Earnest,” Oscar Wilde’s farcical play set in Victorian England, in its newly reinterpreted Octagon Drawing Room, recently restored Sunken Garden, front porch, and portico. The Octagon Room contains furnishings and portraits authentic to the Victorian era in which the story takes place. You'll follow the actors through the Mansion and it's grounds and be delighted by Wilde’s classic comedic tale about the foibles and conventions of Victorian society revealed through a twisting plot, secret identities, and unexpected revelations.
