“所有女人都会变成跟她们母亲一样，这就是她们的悲剧；男人则不然，这也是男人的悲剧。”
《认真的重要性》（又译《不可儿戏》）被认为是最能够代表奥斯卡·王尔德喜剧创作的杰作，充满了王尔德式的妙语连珠；剧中人如同双生子一样的真假身份带来了误会与巧合，最终的假戏真做皆大欢喜，更是在继承莎士比亚喜剧衣钵的基础上，以王尔德独有的、玩世不恭的态度，讽刺了维多利亚时期上流社会的虚伪矫饰，至今犀利依旧。

《认真的重要性》故事里的杰克和阿尔杰农一个看似正经，另一个则是花花公子，实际上皆以不同的身份游走于伦敦社交圈与乡野生活之间。他们分别追求格温多林和塞西莉两个姑娘，却眼看就要因为同时用了“厄内斯特”（Ernest谐音Earnest，意为“认真”）这一虚构的姓名和身份而搞砸婚事……
由前任环球莎士比亚艺术总监多米尼克·德洛姆戈尔（Dominic Dromgoole）创立的公司Classic Spring制作的奥斯卡·王尔德演出季于2018年登上伦敦西区，以纪念这位维多利亚时期的天才作家。作为该季最热门的剧目之一，此版《认真的重要性》由迈克尔·芬特曼执导，奥利弗奖得主索菲·汤普森领衔主演，再次领略到高级讽刺喜剧的“机智俏皮”、“迷人魅力”。

Act I: 1959

Grieving parents Bev and Russ are planning to sell their home in the white middle-class Chicago neighborhood of Clybourne Park. They receive a visit from their local clergyman, as well as a neighbor and his deaf, pregnant wife; the neighbor informs them that the family buying the house is black, and pleads with the couple to back out of the deal, for fear that area property values will fall if black residents move in. It becomes apparent that the black family moving in are the Youngers, the protagonists of A Raisin in the Sun , and the neighbor, Karl, is Karl Lindner, the minor character from that play who attempts to bribe the Youngers into abandoning their plans to move into the neighborhood. As arguments ensue about the potential problems of integrating the neighborhood, both couples awkwardly call on Russ and Bev's black housekeeper and her husband to express their opposing views. Russ finally snaps and throws everyone out of the house, saying he no longer cares about his neighbors after their callousness and cruelty to his son Kenneth when he returned home from the Korean War . Kenneth later committed suicide on the upper floor of their home.
Act II: 2009

Set in the same home as Act I, the same actors reappear playing different characters. In the intervening fifty years, Clybourne Park has become an all-black neighborhood, which is now gentrifying . A white couple seeking to buy and replace the house are being forced to negotiate with local housing regulations with a black couple representing a neighborhood organization. The white couple's lawyer, the daughter of the neighbor and his deaf wife, mentions that her family moved out of the neighborhood around the time of her birth; the black wife is a relative of the family who bought the home from Bev and Russ. The discussion of housing codes soon degenerates into one of racial issues, revealing resentments from both parties. While this is happening, a workman finds an old trunk that Russ has buried in the back yard, with some of the things of their son, including his final letter.

In a short coda, we see Bev back in 1959, catching her son awake late at night (and probably writing his suicide note), she says, naively, "I really believe things are about to change for the better."

正如最初这部戏最初的名字《一个晚上的错误》一样，整个故事发生在一个漫长的夜晚。
Mr. Hardcastle是个有钱的乡下人，他有意撮合他女儿Kate和伦敦富二代Charles Marlow。但是Marlow不太擅长和上流社会的女性交往，反而和底层社会的女人合得来。当Kate和Charles第一次见面，Kate意识到她必须表现的非常普通，否则对方是不会向她求婚的。所以Kate有意降低自己的身份，表现的像一个佣人，她觉得这样Charles就会更容易的爱上她。而Marlow带了他朋友George Hastings一同去了Hardcastle的庄园，因为Hastings爱慕着同样住在庄园里的Constance Neville小姐。两个人在途中迷了路只好在一个叫三只鸽子的酒吧逗留。在酒吧里，他们遇见了Kate同父异母的哥哥，Constance的表哥：Tony Lumpkin。Tony很快的意识到这个两个人的身份并决定戏弄他们一下。他告诉两人他们的目的地还有很远，建议他们在中途找家旅馆休息，而他所指的那家旅馆其实正是Hardcastle的家。当两人毫不知情的到达‘旅馆’，Hardcastle一家夹道热情地欢迎了他们，但两人仍然状况外，对主人的热情十分冷漠，并且说了一些侮辱Hardcastle先生的话。碍于与Marlow父亲的交情，Hardcastle先生克制自己去默默地忍受了两个无知青年的表现。
Kate从佣人那打听来这一切都是她哥哥Tony搞的鬼，并且她也从Marlow对Constance的态度中了解到他对上流社会女性表现的十分害羞。所以Kate决定在化妆舞会上把自己打扮成女仆人并学着底层社会人的口音去接近Marlow。果然Marlow爱上了表现十分底层有时甚至下流的她并计划着带她私奔。但由于Marlow父亲的出现，一切误会都被解除了。
与此同时，Constance需要得到她继承的一份珠宝，但珠宝却被表哥Tony的生母Mrs.Hardcastle保管着，因为Mrs Harcastle想让她嫁给他的儿子，而珠宝就可以肥水不流外人田。Tony本人十分鄙视他母亲的想法，其实他爱上的是酒吧的服务员而不是表妹。于是他决定帮Constance从母亲那里把珠宝骗来，这样Constance和Hastings就可以逃到法国去了。
最后，Kate的计谋成功了，她顺利的和Marlow订了婚；而Tony发现他母亲一直在掩盖他成年这个事实，现在他可以以自己的名义支配财产了。于是他合法的从母亲那拿到了Constance的珠宝并促成Constance和Hastings的姻缘。
