A Gay Importance of Being Earnest

Event Type
Theater
Event Department
Cultural Affairs
Description
Two couples fight for the right to be engaged in this masterful satire written by Oscar Wilde, who was arrested for “gross indecency with men” in 1895. This timeless story galivants through a world obsessed with appearances, money, and social status. The parallels with today’s Hollywood Culture make for searing fun and by presenting the four lovers as dashing gay men, Queer Classics reimagines the play more hysterically fabulous than Oscar could have imagined possible in his lifetime.

‘Trans Mom vs. Family Court: Justice Sees No Gender’ chronicles my transitioning to trans-mother while simultaneously fighting for custody rights in 1995 without an attorney.
