Fanny’s First Play
by George Bernard Shaw
“Where middle-class morality meets its match in the ultimate family showdown.”
When Fanny O’Dowda pens a play to challenge her father’s rigid ideals, she sets the stage for a riotous collision between Victorian respectability and rebellious youth. This biting satire exposes the hilarious hypocrisy of high society as two families struggle to contain their 'perfect' children’s scandalous secrets.
