The Importance of Being Earnest A Trivial Comedy for Serious People is a play by Oscar Wilde First performed on 14 February 1895 at the St Jamess Theatre in London it is a farcical comedy in which the protagonists maintain fictitious personæ to escape burdensome social obligations Working within the social conventions of late Victorian London the plays major themes are the triviality with which it treats institutions as serious as marriage and the resulting satire of Victorian ways Contemporary reviews all praised the plays humour though some were cautious about its explicit lack of social messages while others foresaw the modern consensus that it was the culmination of Wildes artistic career so far Its high farce and witty dialogue have helped make The Importance of Being Earnest Wildes most enduringly popular play The successful opening night marked the climax of Wildes career but also heralded his downfall The Marquess of Queensberry whose son Lord Alfred Douglas was Wildes lover planned to present the writer with a bouquet of rotten vegetables and disrupt the show Wilde was tipped off and Queensberry was refused admission Soon afterwards their feud came to a climax in court where Wildes homosexual double life was revealed to the Victorian public and he was eventually sentenced to imprisonment His notoriety caused the play despite its early success to be closed after 86 performances After his release he published the play from exile in Paris but he wrote no further comic or dramatic work

The truth is rarely pure and never simple declares Algernon early in Act One of The Importance of Being Earnest and were it either modern literature would be a complete impossibility It is a moment of sly winking selfregard on the part of the playwright for The Importance is itself the sort of complex modern literary work in which the truth is neither pure nor simple Wildes greatest play is full of subtexts disguises concealments and double entendres Continuing the important cultural work he began in his awardwinning uncensored edition of The Picture of Dorian Gray Nicholas Frankel shows that The Importance needs to be understood in relation to its authors homosexuality and the climate of sexual repression that led to his imprisonment just months after it opened at Londons St Jamess Theatre on Valentines Day 1895In a facingpage edition designed with students teachers actors and dramaturges in mind The Annotated Importance of Being Earnest provides running commentary on the play to enhance understanding and enjoyment The introductory essay and notes illuminate literary biographical and historical allusions tying the play closely to its authors personal life and sexual identity Frankel reveals that many of the plays wittiest lines were incorporated nearly four years after its first production when the author living in Paris as an exiled and impoverished criminal oversaw publication of the first book edition This newly edited text is accompanied by numerous illustrations
