Heartbreak House

Life in the eccentric household of mad Captain Shotover teeters precariously upon the edge of disaster in George Bernard Shaw’s Heartbreak House. Romance springs ever eternal but never mutual, and the only stable marriages have the least to do with love. Written during World War I, but withheld by the playwright until after the hostilities ended, the play is a scathing indictment of a world that spawned destruction. To many aficionados, it’s Shaw at the top of his game.
