...Earnest?
Media reviews
Chaos meets comedy in this off-the-rails adaptation of Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest.
equal parts loving homage and uproarious parody.
Interactive comedy. Voluntary…. Well mostly!
...a 75-minute chaotic ball of thunder, culminating in some brilliant work for audience members to take part in.
Straight off the bat, I say go see this unpredictable, no show is the same Fringe show!
It is side-splitting hilarity as the play falls apart yet is held together by volunteers from the audience.
The community of theatre encapsulated, and a riff on “the show must go on” in Oscar Wilde’s classic with hilarious and unique results
There’s no need for SparkNotes in this play within a play with plenty of audience interaction and subsequent improvisation along the way
A night of slapstick humour and a wonderfully unpredictable romp.
A wildly unpredictable, laugh-out-loud take on The Importance of Being Earnest that turns audience chaos into pure comedy.
Manages to stumble its way to a successful conclusion where cast and audience can share a feeling of great accomplishment!
As late-night Fringe fare, …Earnest? feels destined for cult status
…Earnest? is a belly laugh from start to finish. The script crackles with witty asides and clever improvisations.
...Earnest? lives up to the promise of being WILD(E)!
