the delightful romantic comedy
CANDIDA
by George Bernard ShawThis production is generously sponsored by The Shaw SocietyOne woman, two men, an eternal triangle of exuberant personalities but which way will the worldly-wise Candida jump? To her mature, idealistic clergyman husband, who believes all is well with his world, until he finds it shattered to its very foundations; or to the young, impulsive Bohemian poet, who is convinced that only he truly understands the woman he worships, and that all conventions should be thrown to the wind! Add into the mix the clergymans secretary, secretly in love with her employer, a curate also devoted to his superior, and Candidas somewhat rough-and-ready capitalist father, the polar opposite of his proselytizing son-in-law, and you have the perfect ingredients for an exhilarating evening of love and wit!
Last years production of ARMS AND THE MAN was a great success
"the cast extracted every moment of laughter in this fast-moving comedy ... a tremendous amount of fun" (The Shavian)
"[the] actors impressively bounce off one another [and] tell the story eloquently and consummately" (British Theatre Guide)
