Earnest or What's in a Name?
by Leonard Diamond

Oscar Wilde receives a surprise visit from Arthur Sullivan, who, as it turns out, has just split from his partner Gilbert and is seeking a new venture.

Wilde, only too happy to oblige, offers up his unpublished play The Importance of Being Earnest, and an inspired (fictitious) collaboration is born.

What follows is an imagined musical version of one of the most well-loved plays of all time.

Featuring a score the real Arthur Sullivan would have been proud to pen himself, Earnest or What’s in a Name?

is an exciting and inventive new musical that will leave you wanting more from this partnership that ‘might have been.’
