Synopsis

In 1890s London, rakish Algernon Montcrieff is visited by his friend, Jack Worthing, who is in town to propose marriage to Algy's wildly romantic cousin, Gwendolen. Jack, however, who has created a devilish younger brother called "Ernest" to hide his own misdeeds, has a beautiful young ward named Cecily , whom he wants to keep clear of the roguish Algy. While Jack deals with the large obstacle standing between him and Gwendolen--namely, her mother, the imposing Lady Bracknell --Algy devises a way to meet Cecily. The confusion and hilarity come to a peak when Algy arrives at Jack's country manor posing as Ernest in order to woo Cecily, and Gwendolen runs away to the country to be with Jack--whom she knows as Ernest.
