The Drunk Texts: The Importance of Being Drunk and Earnest

Random Access Theatre’s boozy-geeky Drunk Texts series muddles classical scripts—or modern ones reimagined as classical—into a cocktail of drinking games, improv and audience interaction, in which the audiences chooses which thespians take shots. In this episode, which we might call "The One About the Bunburying Toffs," the gang salutes the Gay Nineties of two different centuries by merging Oscar Wilde's dazzlingly epigrammatic 1890s upper-class farce The Importance of Being Earnest with NBC's comfort-comedy 1990s sitcom Friends.
