The Importance of Being Earnest

 

Join us for an unforgettable Victorian experience of Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest, a wonderfully witty play on romance, friendship and avoiding one’s odious social obligations. It will be held at the magnificent Clifton Club in the heart of Clifton Village, where a young Victoria once stayed before her ascension to the throne.

There will be two intervals of 15 minutes where cucumber sandwiches & slices of Victoria Sponge cake will be served by butlers in authentic Victorian costumes. The bar at The Clifton Club will be serving a variety of drinks. Two delicious cocktails have been tailored for the occasion: The Gentleman Jack and The Perfect Lady**.

Black tie, while not necessary, is certainly welcomed. Doors open at 7. Commence at 7.30. Carriages at 10.15.

We look forward to welcoming you as our esteemed guest!
