Irishman George Bernard Shaw’s thought-provoking “Three Plays for Puritans” challenges conventional views through wit and drama.
The collection opens with “The Devil’s Disciple,” a comedic twist on American Revolution heroism. In “Caesar and Cleopatra,” a sharp Cleopatra, far from Shakespeare’s seductress, schools the aging Julius Caesar. The final play, “Captain Brassbound’s Conversion,” dives into adventure and deception in Morocco.
Shaw’s signature preface explores his philosophy on theater, making “Three Plays for Puritans” a must-read for those seeking intelligent entertainment that sparks conversation.
