SUMMARY:London’s National Theatre in HD: “The Importance of Being Earnest”
DESCRIPTION:Being sensible can be excessively boring. At least Jack thinks so. While assuming the role of dutiful guardian in the country\, he lets loose in town under a false identity. Meanwhile\, his friend Algy takes on a similar facade. Unfortunately\, living a double life has its drawbacks\, especially when it comes to love. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies\, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.
