…Earnest? at the Adelaide Fringe is nothing short of a belly-laugh-inducing delight. This riotously clever take on Oscar Wilde’s classic comedy The Importance of Being Earnest takes an unexpected turn when the lead actor fails to show, throwing an unsuspecting audience member into the spotlight to save the day. What follows is a wildly unpredictable, interactive theatrical romp of the very best kind.
Clever without being cheesy, and ridiculous without losing substance, …Earnest? is effervescent, witty, and just so much fun! It’s an inspired Fringe offering and, quite simply, if you want a good belly laugh, don’t miss this great night out.
