One of the most popular Shaw plays we have presented
in our 60 years, this exploration of medical ethics has

the cost of another’s life, how on earth do you choose?
What is the value of a human life? Questions which
have never lost their urgency are brought to thrilling
life in this tragicomic tour de force.

How to describe a play in which the first character to
speak is a microbe? Shaw’s ‘Political Extravaganza,’
written in 1932, foreshadows the insanity that was about
to engulf the world. With a cavalier disregard for the
unities of time and place, the play takes us on a surreal
journey into the heart of the outdated public and private
prejudices and errors that would soon be swept away – THE SHAW’S
