Oscar Wildeâs âThe Importance of Being Earnestâ is the last of his four drawing-room plays, the previous three being âLady Windermereâs Fanâ, âA Woman Of No Importanceâ and âAn Ideal Husbandâ, written a couple of hundred years ago! This farcical comedy depicts the tangled affairs of two young âmen about townâ who lead double lives to evade unwanted social obligations, both assuming the name âErnestâ while wooing the two young women of their affections. The play, celebrated for its wit and repartee, parodies contemporary dramatic norms, gently satirizes late Victorian manners, and introduces â in addition to the two pairs of young lovers â the formidable âLady Bracknellâ â you must have heard of her! A luminary of Albuquerque theatre holding the directorâs baton, Mario Cabrera has chosen six very well-known actors â Georgia Athearn, Nicee Brown, Clair Gardner, Jerry Hines, Bailey Hunt, Scott Sharot and Michael Weppler - to delight the audience, along with M. Cabrera, as âLady Bracknellâ! Performances 7.30pm Fridays and Saturdays. Additional performances Thursday Dec 11 and 18 at 7.30pm ($10 tix available). Saturday Dec 13 - 2pm only.

The Same Place at the Same Time is a series of three exhibition rotations that trace how art lives within, emerges from, and connects Taosâ creative communities. By gathering a varied array of artsâwood-fired ceramics, volunteer radio, and Pueblo foodwaysâinto the rotating gallery space, the exhibition highlights the many interconnected maker groups within our larger Taos community. The inclusion of visual art, music, and food emphasizes the diversity of creativity that constructs thriving cultures and communities.
The exhibition is process-focused and collectively developed, documenting how these groups operate and co-curated by the groups themselves. It explores the wide-ranging organizational structures of these collectives, in turn allowing us to consider how these frameworks influence art making, relationships, and the rich culture of Taos. It asks how we might further nurture this expansive web of connections, both inside and outside of the gallery space.
Harwood Museum of Art is honored to collaborate with local artists, makers, and cultural leaders who shape and define Taosâs remarkable artistic landscape.
