The George Bernard Shaw Library presents the works of George Bernard Shaw in full: plays, prefaces, arguments, provocations, and all the inconvenient ideas respectable society might prefer to leave unopened.

Shaw wrote to entertain, certainly. But also to irritate, unsettle, contradict, and make his audience think. Here you can hear his words as they were meant to unfold: not as quotations or summaries, but whole, alive, and given room to argue their case.

Enter for the wit, stay for the trouble.Public domain Teatro e spettacoli

The company contends with the delicate duel of affections and the intricate tensions wrought by past grievances, all beneath the polite veneer of an evening’s gathering.

    In which the quiet Marine Hotel terrace becomes the scene of delicate revelations and delicate tensions, as an unexpected reunion toys with notions of family, respectability, and social pretence, all punctuated by the irrepressible tact of a certain genial waiter. Amidst the mixture of youthful jest and adult unease, the interplay of principles and passions stirs a curious cocktail of affection, resentment, and the elusive quest for identity.
