Cecily Cardew and Gwendolen Fairfax are both in love with the same mythical suitor. Jack Worthing has wooed Gewndolen as Ernest while Algernon has also posed as Ernest to win the heart of Jacks ward, Cecily. When all four arrive at Jacks country home on the same weekendthe "rivals" to fight for Ernests undivided attention and the "Ernests" to claim their belovedspandemonium breaks loose. Only a senile nursemaid and an old, discarded hand-bag can save the day!
