Lue lisääThe lifestyle of the upper class is the object of ridicule Even the beginning seems promising. Algernon (Sampo Sarkola), a young upper-class British dude, enters the scene and has a laugh-out-loud conversation with his self-confident servant Lane (Joachim Wigelius) about cucumber bread and other “very” important things. The verbal rejoicing continues throughout the performance, after all, it is the well-known comedy The Importance of Being Earnest by the intellectual writer Oscar Wilde, who was active in London in the late 1800s. At Lilla Teatern, the play is performed in Finnish translation as Why Women Always Fall in Love with Ernest, written by Sam Hardwick. The performance is directed with a confident touch by Neil Hardwick.The plot of the comedy is not that amazing. Two young women, Gwendolen (Armi Toivanen) and Cecily (Edith Holmström), want to marry, but only to a man named Ernest. This ensues a tangle of misunderstandings and confusion involving Algernon’s friend John (Pekka Strang), his aunt Lady Bracknell (Birgitta Ulfsson) and the vicar Chasuble (Tom Wentzel). However, the light-hearted hilarity hides a hefty dose of criticism of the society of its time and the lifestyle of the upper class. Many of its lines have survived, such as “The truth is rarely pure and never simple”, “A cynic knows the price of everything but the value of nothing” and “We are all in the gutter, but some of us look at the stars”. The actors throw themselves into their roles with all their professionalism. Special mention must be given to Ulfsson, who is perfectly suited to the arrogant and hypocritical role of Lady Bracknell. The glorious emptiness of upper-class life is emphasized by the magnificent costumes and sets designed by Kirsti Kasnio .
Lue lisääIdle class does not compromise on its achieved benefits If someone comes to me and says that The Importance of Being Earnest, written by Oscar Wilde 112 years ago, is one of the funniest comedies of all time, I won’t object. After all, it has the essential ingredients in one package: farce tuned to a good pace, satire that mocks the ruthless people and witty verbal comedy. All you need is a director who masters the genres of comedy, a skilled translator and actors dedicated to precision… Lilla Teatern’s ensemble has found those capabilities and the result is a joyful two-hour performance.It may be that last year, when Wilde’s Pill of Joy was made in Lillan in Swedish, things were even more flexible. Now that the performance language is the second Finnish language for most actors, fast replication and articulation are sometimes in demand. Or it was, at the premiere a week and a half ago; Now the tongue is probably already in the middle of the mouth at the right time and alternately in both cheeks.
