Summary: In this play by Oscar Wilde, Jack is living two lives: he is known by his real name, Jack, to his friends in his more permanent country home, but his friends (and his love interest) in London know him as Earnest. Jack’s double-identity create some ridiculous and hilarious situations in this comedy of manners.
