Details
George Bernard Shaw's Heartbreak House is a comedy about the deceptions and meaningless pursuits of England's ruling class and an entertaining political commentary about what happens when socialites, tycoons and drifters collide in the pre-World War I British countryside. Expect the unexpected in this rare revival.
