The evening was guest hosted Jesse Green of New York Magazine. BroadwayWorld was on hand, as usual, and brings you photo coverage below!
Produced, edited and directed by David Staller, GETTING MARRIED is Shaw's a provocative tale of creative couplings. The Bishop's daughter is getting married today, but second thoughts are flying through the air. Lesbia is determined to live without a man, but wants to have a child. Hotchkiss has broken up a marriage but is it the husband or wife he's interested in? All converge to forge a partnership agreement between consenting adults to try and circumvent the traditional marriage contract. And then the mysterious Mrs. George arrives to throw everyone off balance.
George Bernard Shaw's first success was as a music and literary critic, but he was drawn to drama. He decided to write plays. He was fiercely proud of being a free-thinking humanist. He and Al Gore are the only people to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize and an Oscar: (Nobel in 1925 for his contribution to literature, an Oscar in 1938 for his PYGMALION screenplay). His dedication to the battle for Human Rights for all, and encouraging all people to forge an individual path in life while taking responsibility for these life choices has been our inspiration. Project Shaw is the first group ever to present every play ever written by Shaw.
