National Theatre Live: The Importance of Being Earnest - Pay What You Can: £20, £15, £10

Being sensible can be excessively boring. At least Jack thinks so.

While assuming the role of dutiful guardian in the country, he lets loose in town under a false identity. Meanwhile, his friend Algy takes on a similar facade.

Unfortunately, living a double life has its drawbacks, especially when it comes to love. Hoping to impress two eligible ladies, the gentlemen find themselves caught in a web of lies they must carefully navigate.

Max Webster (Donmar's Macbeth; Life of Pi) directs a joyful and flamboyant reimagining of Oscar Wilde's most celebrated comedy. Olivier Award-winner Sharon D Clarke (Ma Rainey's Black Bottom; Doctor Who) is joined by Ncuti Gatwa (Doctor Who; Sex Education) and Hugh Skinner (W1A; Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again) in this hilarious story of identity, impersonation and romance.
