THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST
15th July - 6pm - 8pm

Chapterhouse Theatre Company is proud to present: Oscar Wilde's finest and best-loved romantic comedy.

The Importance of Being Earnest

Saturday 15th July at Lamport Hall (Doors open at 4:30pm for a 6pm start time).

With a cast of unforgettably larger than life characters, the delightful Cecily, the roguish Algernon and the formidable Lady Bracknell are sure to keep you wildly entertained!

Picnic with friends and family and enjoy this exquisite new production of Wilde's hilarious tale of double lives and mistaken identities presented in full period costume.

Join us in Lamport Hall's stunning open-air Walled Garden, for a wonderful evening of theatre under the stars.
