This is a must see production that will have you laughing so hard for two and a half hours, your ribs will hurt, but what a great pain it will be! We go to the theater to be entertained and this production is perfect in every way.East China University of Science and Technology, Shanghai, ChinaĬopyright © 2020 by author(s) and Open Access Library Inc. “A masterful production… What a marvelous, flawless production. It’ll be one of the best gifts you will receive this season!” David Darlow (Lady Bracknell) is outrageously funny! I’m being completely earnest when I say not to miss Remy Bumppo’s The Importance of Being Earnest. With the Wilde-Douglass combination, the cast is making word love for a hysterically pleasurable romp.
“Wildely Entertaining! Double entendres are actualized to perfection. “Shawn Douglass directs with a keen ear for the glories of this language-driven comic masterpiece.” “Sterling performances are exactly what you get from a well-honed ensemble who can punch home this barbed tomfoolery.” To put it succinctly: ‘Go Wilde’ this holiday season. And those bon mots and glittering adages come fast and furiously in three acts that glide by effortlessly, and with nearly nonstop, effervescent laughter that is invariably rooted in a mix of psychological insight and total nuttiness.
“With rapid-fire, precision-tuned direction by Shawn Douglass, who has gathered a cast that seems uniformly born to play Wilde (and it is a special talent, to be sure), this Remy Bumppo production sparkles from the first sardonic glance of a butler to the final ‘bon mots’ of all involved. The show also features the considerable talents of Greg Matthew Anderson, an effortlessly ethereal actor who is the very epitome of what Wilde intended for Algernon.” “Exceedingly funny… smart and solidly amusing seasonal revival of one of the funniest and most comfortingly familiar of the English comedies.
