George Bernard Shaw's first success was as a music and literary critic, but he was drawn to drama. He decided to write plays. He was fiercely proud of being a free-thinking humanist, dedicated to presenting the cause of human rights for all. He and Al Gore are the only people to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize and an Oscar: (Nobel in 1925 for his contribution to literature, an Oscar in 1938 for his PYGMALION screenplay). His dedication to the battle for Human Rights and to encouraging all people to forge an individual path in life while taking responsibility for these life choices has been our inspiration. Now in its third of four years, Project Shaw is dedicated to presenting every play ever written by Shaw.CC.2THE PLAYERS -- Project Shaw performs at New York's most legendary private club, The Players.
