In Misalliance, Shaw examines a variety of unsuitable combinations. The social and the political collide with the romantic and the practical; convention clashes with innovation; parents spar with children and the kids let the elders have it in return; the aristocrats mate uncomfortably with the merchant class, and-to top it all off there's a lady aviatrix and a gun-toting socialist loose on the grounds!
Tickets are $30 and are available by calling (212) 864-5400 or online at www.symphonyspace.org.
