Theatre is back at The Platform with Three Left Feet's fresh and fun adaptation of Oscar Wilde's 'The Importance of Being Earnest'. Step into a world brimming with wit, charm, and sparkling satire in the timeless comedy of errors and mistaken identities.

Follow the antics of two endearing frenemies—Jack and Algernon—who, in their quest for romance and escape from the confines of social expectations, concoct elaborate deceptions and adopt false identities. As their web of lies unravels, the characters find themselves caught in a whirlwind of absurd situations, misunderstandings, and hilarious complications.

Wilde’s razor-sharp commentary on love, marriage, and societal norms still resonates today, with his unforgettable characters delivering biting observations on the absurdities of life and the pursuit of happiness. The play’s sparkling dialogue, plot twists, and extravagant personalities will have you laughing out loud from start to finish.

This production is a delightful reminder that in both love and life, the most important thing is… being earnest. Whether you're familiar with Wilde's work or discovering it for the first time, this lively adaptation promises a night of unforgettable entertainment.
