Major Barbara

By George Bernard Shaw

About the Show

​

Staged Reading Directed by Gretchen Wirges
 

In collaboration with Pima Community College, Live Theatre Workshop seeks to blend new voices with old stories. Diverse casting and exciting new takes on classical pieces help us bring a depth and a light to canon. We can claim our own stories. We can shine new light. All the while, pairing individuals who are new to acting and theatre, with talented and mentoring actors in an effort to teach, guide and learn together. We all win. The stories. The cast. The community.

Young, charity-driven Barbara learns her father’s fortune comes from making weapons, she must grapple with the messy truth about doing good in a flawed world. Shaw’s sharp, witty comedy asks: can ideals survive in a world built on compromise?
