While past Berkshire School performances have been awesome, this fall production introduces a particular challenge for the cast. The play, “The Importance of Being Earnest” is spoken entirely in the British dialect. All of the cast members in this production are required to learn and speak in this accent. While it is a difficult task, our hard work has been so rewarding! The excitement for learning this new dialect outweighs the hardships.
Max Miller, who plays Jack Worthing, has made tremendous progress with the accent. Never having spoken or used the British accent, his pronunciation is rather convincing. Watch the video to hear a snippet of his accent and the play!
