31 May - 2 June 2007: The Importance of Being Earnest
As part of the Wycombe Arts Festival, Oscar Wilde's comedy masterpiece comes to the Wycombe Swan via their resident
company Tight Fit Theatre.
Jack and Algernon take on the name Ernest in order to win the hearts of their respective loves,
Gwendolen and Cecily, two young ladies who are sure
they could only love men called Ernest. When they all arrive at Jack's
country home, we have two men who claim to be “Ernest”, and two girls in
love with men named “Ernest” who aren't earnest.
Confused?
All will be answered in this delightful, witty production directed by Mark
Oldknow.
Autumn 2007: Euripides’ The Phoenician Women adapted by Mark Oldknow
“Another tour de force by Tight Fit Theatre”
- Buckinghamshire Advertiser
“Quite splendid. Marvellous
”
- Bucks Free Press
Mark Oldknow returns to his second passion, Greek Tragedy, with one of the most extraordinary reworkings of Sophocles’ Oedipus Trilogy.
Thebes stands on the brink of war as Eteocles and Polyneices, Oedipus’ two sons, stand prepared to wrest control of the city. Oedipus, haunted by his past, stands in silence as his Mother Jocasta struggles to bring her sons to a peaceful resolution.
The futility of war is brought sharply and intelligently into focus in Euripides wonderful narrative. As is to be expected from Wycombe Swan’s resident company, an exhilarating evening full of visual flair is guaranteed.
