The Shaw Festival in Niagara presents John Bull's Other Island - a comedy by Bernard Shaw in which friends and business partners Broadbent and Doyle travel to a small town in Ireland with a business deal in mind. The Englishman, Broadbent, falls in love with everything about the place, including Nora Reilly, Doyle's old flame. Doyle, the hometown boy, only sees a country trapped in its past. Shaw's unromantic look at the romance of Ireland, and a play so funny that at a royal command performance, King Edward VII laughed so hard he broke his chair.
