In 'The Importance of Being Earnest', dashing men-about-town John Worthing and Algernon Moncrieff pursue fair ladies Gwendolen Fairfax and Cecily Cardew. Matters are complicated by the imaginary characters invented by both men to cover their on-the-sly activities -- not to mention the disapproval of Gwendolen's mother, the formidable Lady Bracknell.
