  The Importance of Being Earnest is a play by Oscar Wilde. First performed on 14
  February 1895 at the St James's Theatre in London, it is a farcical comedy in which
  the protagonists maintain fictitious personae to escape burdensome social
  obligations. Working within the social conventions of late Victorian London, the
  play's major themes are the triviality with which it treats institutions as serious as
  marriage, and the resulting satire of Victorian ways.
  Some contemporary reviews praised the play's humour and the culmination of
  Wilde's artistic career, while others were cautious about its lack of social messages.
  Its high farce and witty dialogue have helped make The Importance of Being
  Earnest Wilde's most enduringly popular play.
