The Importance of Being Earnest • 8 – 10 March 2012
![]() |
||
When everyone loves Ernest, who is earnestly in love ?
LUTheatre brings you a classic comedy that teaches the importance of being romantic, the importance of being faithful and the importance of being earnest.
All is not as it seems, as these perfect manners and ideal romances are revealed to be a little on the Wilde side. As the number of mistaken identities increase, it will leave hats left askew and tea cups shaken with laughter. In a brilliant exposé of social follies it is made clear that there are a few too few Ernests earnestly courting.

Thursday, 8th March, 7.30pm

Venue:
The Queen's Hall [02 Academy 2], Percy Gee Building

Stand Up & Jump by James Staynings • 14 - 16 March 2012

"It's about time I started living on the edge…".
"Yeah… it's the only place where I feel safe…"
Jack is a third year Chemistry student who has everything going for him.
His sister, Ripley, a first year geologist, is ready to quit. Tension is rife amongst the family, as their 'disowned' brother, Danny, is returning home for Easter.
However, this tension is destroyed in the worst way imaginable.
Only a day before Danny's scheduled return, the whole family reunites for the first time in eight years when Danny tries to kill himself, and their reunion occurs around his unconscious body in a hospital in London.
Questions are asked not only about why he did it, or what became of the boy in theis hospital bed. Tragedy looks inward for answers: how you see the world, how you look at yourself.
