Bernard Shaw

Great Catherine, and Playlets of the War. By Bernard Shaw

Heartbreak House

Dan H. Laurence

Written at the height of the first World War in Europe, an impassioned satire of the late nineteenth and early twentieth-century bourgeoisie offers a scathing portrait of a household of independent eccentrics.

It was okay. I’m not a big Shaw fan so I had to read this and watch it in order to really get through it. Lots of conversation that requires full attention and watching a live performance to really catch and enjoy. Shaw humor is unique and depending on where or who you are it can be easy to miss. I’ll give another Shaw play a try, but this one isn’t my favorite. Ideal character would be Addy Utterwood. She’s fun.
