About Shaw's Shorts by George Bernard Shaw

A fresh look at two of GB Shaw’s most delicious one-act plays, first produced by Stage Guild in 2007. In O'FLAHERTY VC, the winner of the Victoria Cross for outstanding bravery, is confronted by his Irish-to-the-core Catholic mother, incensed to discover he's been fighting for the British. In the imaginative THE DARK LADY OF THE SONNETS, Will Shakespeare goes to the palace to meet his Dark Lady to whom he addressed sonnets of love, only to find Her Majesty the Queen instead – followed by the Dark Lady herself who lambasts them both! Plus THE INTERLUDE AT THE PLAYHOUSE, a comic curtain-raiser in which a nervous theatre owner must give a big speech at a gala opening, but his wife may have to save the day.
