The Abbey Theatre is proud to welcome back Annabelle Comyn following the success of her vivacious production of G.B. Shaw’s Pygmalion in 2011 and award winning production of Tom Murphy’s The House in 2012.
Major Barbara probes the undercurrents of a firebrand Salvation Army major’s relationship with her arms-manufacturing, millionaire father. On a mission to save, Major Barbara must navigate the uneasy terrain where good and evil, morality and economics, salvation and perdition meet.
A brilliantly ironic comedy, this is one of Shaw’s most controversial, witty and entertaining plays.
