Getting Married
Birmingham Repertory Theatre, 1962.
|
by Bernard Shaw When the daughter of a Bishop decides on her wedding day not to go through with the ceremony, the reaction of the assembled family are many and hilarious. In sorting out the tangle, the views of the Church, State, and Army are forcefully put- not to mention those of self-professed snobs, and the wife of the local coal merchant. Shaw’s armoury shoots at the English class-snobbery, Puritanism, and sentimentality with explosively funny results.
