Question Five: The Importance of Being Earnest

The Importance of Being Earnest: on the play

The play format differs greatly from a novel format. However, you're reading the play instead of seeing it performed as it is meant to be. How does a play differ from a novel? How does reading the play affect, both positively and negatively, your experience with this piece of literature? If you've seen this play performed, how did your experience with being a spectator differ from your experience with reading it?

  1. I did not see the play. But I honestly did enjoy reading it, I thought it was going to be supper boring but it was funny, I would like to see the play but I did like being able to imagine the characters the way I have them in my head.

  2. I have not seen the play, but i would like too. It seems like it would be really good. I enjoyed reading this play, it actually kept me interested, i was very surprised. I imagined the play while i read it and it was enjoyable. It affects me negatively because it makes me wanna see the play and i haven't yet.
