Getting Married
by George Bernard Shaw
“Before the rings are exchanged, the rules must be rewritten.”
On the morning of a grand wedding, a bride and groom find themselves paralyzed by the legal and moral absurdities of the marriage contract. As guests engage in a hilariously sharp-tongued debate, George Bernard Shaw dismantles social traditions with his signature wit and insight. This timeless comedy proves that the hardest part of a wedding isn't saying 'I do,' but agreeing on what it actually means.
