Village Wooing
by George Bernard Shaw
produced by SHAW2020
VILLAGE WOOING – A Comedietta for Two Voices – is an anti-romantic battle of the sexes comedy by George Bernard Shaw.
It is a charming two-hander in which the characters, simply named ‘A’ and ‘Z’, play a relentless game of cat and mouse across land and sea.
“I am a woman and you are a man, with a slight difference that doesn’t matter except on special occasions.”
SHAW2020 was founded by theatre professionals who are members of The Shaw Society, and is dedicated to the performance, exploration, and adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s works. Their focus is to bring Shaw’s theatre and writings – including those of his contemporaries and those he influenced – to a wider audience.
This production is sponsored by The Shaw Society.
“Congratulations to the Village Wooing team for the nomination and win, a play I have fond memories of performing in 1979. It’s wonderful to see SHAW2020’s work continue to thrive as shown by this industry recognition. I wish their production continued success.”
