Join us for a special homecoming performance of Oscar Wilde’s beloved comedy The Importance of Being Earnest, presented as a staged reading by alumni of the SFCC Drama Program. Directed by Spartan Theatre alum and current faculty member Rebecca Cook, this production celebrates the wit, absurdity, and social satire of Wilde’s most enduring play, with an extra layer of joy as generations of performers return to the stage where they once began.
This Alumni Reader’s Theatre event brings together past students to breathe new life into a timeless classic. With minimal staging and scripts in hand, the focus is on performance, voice, and the shared connection between artists and audience. It’s a rare chance to see familiar faces and new interpretations of characters like the irrepressible Algernon, the earnest Jack, the clever Gwendolen, and the indomitable Lady Bracknell.
Whether you’re a fan of Wilde’s razor-sharp dialogue or a longtime supporter of SFCC’s theatrical legacy, this event is a perfect way to celebrate the spirit of community that has made the Spartan Theatre a cornerstone of the performing arts for more than half a century.
