Theatre
Synopsis:
“Write plays about whatever you wish but not, please, about us!”
1940. The Germans advance on Paris. A case stuffed with letters is smuggled to London. Inside, a remarkable story about – and by – two remarkable people: the brilliant actress ‘Mrs Pat’ and George Bernard Shaw. They met in 1899. They made Pygmalion. World Wars started and stopped, and started again. They fell in love. They fell apart. And through it all… they wrote.
Jerome Kilty’s play reveals the extraordinary bond between these two theatrical titans. In their witty, unfiltered words, attraction collides with ambition as the world transforms around them. A play about how we change – and what we hold on to. Directed by Artistic Director Stella Powell-Jones.
