Literature's most dazzling wit faces down its most red-blooded stoic in The Importance of Being
Ernest Hemingway, a World Premiere by M-34. Set in 1926 Paris with rugged Hemingway men in the roles of Jack and Algy, this mash-up of texts from
Oscar Wilde and
Ernest Hemingway outs the gay romance in Wilde's best-loved work and collides it with Hemingway's impossible machismo, exposing both artists' desperate search for an Ideal Masculinity. Directed and adapted by
James Rutherford in collaboration with Elliot B. Quick, The Importance of Being
Ernest Hemingway is a trivial comedy about pain, lies, violence and vengeance.
The cast includes
Leighton Bryan (Broadway: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof), Ross Cowan,
Charlotte Graham (The Hot Flashes),
Charise Greene (Notebook of Trigorin at The Flea), Timothy Hassler, Ned Riesley, Alexander Salamat, Wheaton Simis and Anne Troup (Ivanov with
Classic Stage Company).
