The Importance of Being Earnest - Act 3 of 3


Following on from the Audio Performances of the Pandemic Stories, the Wombwell Thespians Amateur Dramatics Society (in association with Digital Stage), have produced a new set of recordings (audio broadcasts) on Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest".  This is the full 3 act version and the whole cast is:-


Lady Bracknell - FIONA GOULTY


Algernon Moncrief - LEWIS CONWAY


Jack/John Worthing - ANDY HARRIS


Gwendolen Fairfax - HANNAH STUDD


Rev Chasuble - BRETT BARNETT


Cecily Cardew - KAREN MACQUARRIE


Miss Prism - ANDREA CLAIRE


Merriman - BRETT BARNETT


Lane - ANDY HARRIS


Note - not all actors are in all 3 parts (acts) - This is the final part - Act 3.


Described as a Trivial Comedy for Serious People, it is set in 1895 when attitudes were somewhat different, but love was still love. In the final act, all becomes clear on the names and there is some resolution on the many matters of love.
