Shaw's first play, Widowers' Houses, set in 1892, is a hilarious yet scathing look at the ethics of making money. When a young doctor learns that his future father-in-law has earned his wealth by renting slum housing to the poor, the doctor refuses the tainted dowry that awaits him. But he must reconsider his righteous stance when he discovers alarming news about the source of his own income.
