23 April 2025: National Theatre Live - The Importance of Being Earnest

Part of Breckland Arts For Health Afternoon Events.

The Importance of being Earnest by Oscar Wilde, directed by Max Webster.

Three-time Olivier Award-winner Sharon D Clarke is joined by Ncuti Gatwa (Doctor Who; Sex Education) in this joyful reimagining of Oscar Wilde's most celebrated comedy. While assuming the role of a dutiful guardian in the country, Jack lets loose in town under a false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy adopts a similar facade. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.

Max Webster (Life of Pi) directs this hilarious story of identity, impersonation and romance, filmed live from the National Theatre in London.

★★★★★ 'A flawless piece of comic theatre' - Broadway World

★★★★ 'A bold and brash Wilde reboot' - Times
