Fairfax Pavilion

The Fairfax Theatre Company proudly presents it’s 19th annual production at the Fairfax Pavilion this September with The Importance of Being Earnest, Oscar Wilde’s most enduring witty play, a farcical comedy that masterfully satirizes Victorian-era superficiality, marriage, and social hypocrisy. Following the themes of social obligations and romance, and showcasing clever repartee, the play highlights how artificiality and deception are used to navigate strict social mores. Come see what all the fuss and bustles are about! Don’t miss this enduring and lovably iconic play directed by Sam M. Parry!
