George Bernard Shaw’s examination of human hypocrisy canvasses an impressive array of world cultures, taking us to the American Wild West with “religious tract in dramatic form” The Shewing-Up of Blanco Posnet, to the court of imperial Russia’s most famous Tsarina with Great Catherine, and back home to Victorian Britain with the sexual farce Overruled. Under the direction of Scott Zigler, the A.R.T Institute class of 2013 brings life to Shaw’s captivating characters, men and women united across great space by a desperation to believe they are doing the right thing.
