Shaw’s 1899 comedy focuses on the mismatch between Hypatia, the lusty, free-spirited, daughter of a philandering father who made a bundle in the underwear business, and her aristocratic fiancé Bentley, who is all brains and no body. The has been seen twice on Broadway, most recently in 1953. In addition, the Roundabout Theatre Company has mounted three Off-Broadway productions, the most recent in 1997.
