The Importance of Being Earnest

This is one classic that deserves the attention it gets from the Sacramento Theatre Company. Jason Kuykendall (Jack) and Theo Black (his buddy Algernon) seek the hands of lovely ladies (Katherine Miller and Lyndsy Kall), but must first charm their guardians (Lucinda Hitchcock Cone and Georgann Wallace) in this Victorian comedy of manners. The wit is quick and the jokes are still funny. W 6:30pm; Th 12:30 & 6:30pm; F 8pm; Sa 2 & 8pm, Su 2pm. Through 10/31. $15-$38. Sacramento Theatre Company, 1419 H St.; (916) 443-6722; www.sactheatre.org.
