THESE PERFORMANCES ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

George Bernard Shaw opened July 26, 1856 - went on tour November 2, 1950) Born in Dublin. His 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. Join us in our unprecedented sixth year.
