The Importance of Being Earnest

The Importance of Being Earnest at Portland Center Stage is a show you must treat yourself to.

The Importance of Being Earnest was written by the late Oscar Wilde, and first premiered in 1895.

The play is a comedic examination of high society in Victorian England, though the comedy is still relevant and hilarious today. The actors truly embody their characters, and the show is a lot of fun.

With two intermissions, you will have plenty of time to have a cocktail or glass of wine at the Armory Cafe. Portland Center Stage has a special Gwendolyn cocktail you can enjoy if you like to be adventurous with your libations.

Pros: hilarious show, great acting, classic play
Cons: parking can be tough, PCS seats can be a bit uncomfortable after 3 hours
Bottom line? See the show!
