Upper School Drama Presentation

Friday 13th of June 2014, was absolutely an unforgettable evening as Years 10 and 11 Students of E.I.S. thrilled their audience to a comedy of manners that satirizes Victorian manners and customs as they performed Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earnest”. The play was directed by Mrs Rebecca Khelseau-Carsky.

“The good ended happily, and the bad unhappily. That is what Fiction means.”

“Ï should have remembered that when one is going to lead an entirely new life, one requires regular and wholesome meals.”

“I  do not approve of anything that tampers with natural ignorance. Ignorance is like a Delicate exotic fruit;  touch it and the bloom is gone. The whole theory of modern Education is radically unsound. Fortunately in England, at any rate, education produces no effect whatsoever. If it did, it will prove a serious danger to the upper classes, and probably lead to acts of violence in Grosvenor Square.”

“Ï have always been of the opinion that a man who desires to get married should know either everything or nothing. Which do you know?”

“I’ve now realised for the first time in my life the vital Importance of Being Earnest.”
