_The Importance Of Being Earnest_ by Oscar Wild was originally performed in 1885, but was recently reprised for English audiences. This highly humorous play takes place within the middle class suburban area called *Pinner*, where everyone is at first misinformed about its significance to a family of society members. The story follows the lives of a young man Algernon and his good friend Freddy, who believe their being earnest in one endeavor to be positive to society. Meanwhile, the two watch as various people including a nurse try to take advantage of the two young men and make judgments on their characters. In essence, *The Importance* draws society into an unpleasant situation where behaviors, manners and expressions are carefully analyzed by characters we know, with laughter and sardonic remarks reflecting feelings of indignation.
The primary topic *of being earnest* is an exploration of stereotypes and the image portrayed by mass media and how these impressions shape societies views of individuals. Through this, Oscar Wild reveals that the concept of being earnest is often just a facade, letting the individual live up to inadequacies, rather than facing their full reality. Many readers see themselves in the story and, through reflecting on the effect of the notion of being earness, come to realize that they too may not be living up to their full potential.

"Algernon. Did you hear what I was playing, Lane? Lane. I didn't think it polite to listen, sir. Algernon. I'm sorry for that, for your sake. I don't play accurately—any one can play accurately—but I play with wonderful expression. As far as the piano is concerned, sentiment is my forte. I keep science for Life. Lane. Yes, sir."
