'THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING ERNEST'
OSCAR WILDE'S play, first produced at the St. James's Theatre in 1895 and frequently revived since, is admittedly one of the most brilliant comedies over acted on an English stage. It is, in fact, probably the finest example of the pure comedy of manners, of characterisation and witty dialogue, written in English between the - death of Sheridan and the outbreak of Mr. Noel Coward.
