"A Witty, Romantic, and very Class Conscious Comedy of Manners! 20 minutes of pure Shavian joy!"
George Bernard Shaw's well-known comic one act is a biting critique of the perils of youthful romantic idealism and the tension between London's new monied class and the elite. How He Lied to her Husband is 20 minutes of witty dialogue, romantic effusions, and brash ego, all centering on a strange twist of fate at the end.
