Jack loves Gwendolen. Gwendolen loves Ernest. Jack is Ernest, only Gwendolen doesn’t know it. Lady Bracknell can’t possibly approve of Gwendolen marrying anyone who was found as a baby in a handbag at Victoria Station. Meanwhile, Cecily thinks she loves Ernest. Algernon is convinced he loves Cecily, so pretends he is Ernest. Except that Jack has arranged for Ernest to die in Paris. Miss Prism thinks Cecily should concentrate more on her German grammar. Welcome to the wonderful world of Oscar Wilde, Victorian England’s most brilliant playwright who delighted in satirising the aimless upper classes, and whose wit was as dazzling as it was notorious.
