The Pearl Theatre Company and Gingold Theatre Group will soon present Shaw's Major Barbara, running tonight, November 4 through December 14, 2014.
When the charming weapons-manufacturer Andrew Undershaft goes toe-to-toe with his passionate daughter Barbara, a Major in the Salvation Army, over his "ill-gotten" fortune, it leads to the wager of the century. She is determined to save his soul-he is determined to open her eyes to a wider world. Their confrontation will knock their entire family's moral compass up, down, and sideways, never to be the same again.
One of Shaw's most beloved plays, Major Barbara offers a complex, comic, and challenging look at wealth and poverty, war and peace, and a wickedly funny appraisal of what it truly means to be "moral" in our modern world.
