David Suchet, best known as TV's lovable detective Poirot, plays the formidable Lady Bracknell in Oscar Wilde's much loved masterpiece The Importance of Being Earnest.
Two bachelor friends, the adorable dandy Algernon Moncrieff and the utterly reliable John Worthing J.P., lead double lives to court the attentions of the exquisitely desirable Gwendolyn Fairfax and Cecily Cardew. The men must then grapple with the riotous consequences of their deceptions – and with the formidable Lady Bracknell.
Filmed live on October 8, 2015 from the Vaudeville Theatre, London, this performance is playing in select theatres only on December 3, 2015.
