Following on from the Audio Performances of the Pandemic Stories, the Wombwell Thespians Amateur Dramatics Society (in association with Digital Stage), have produced a new set of recordings (audio broadcasts) on Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest". This is the full 3 act version and the whole cast is:-

Described as a Trivial Comedy for Serious People, it is set in 1895 when attitudes were somewhat different, but love was still love. Hear a great performance from Fiona as Lady B as she deals with the various situations and dilemmas the younger members present!
