Photo Coverage: Project Shaw Presents MAJOR BARBARA

Gingold Theatrical Group commences the 15th Season of Project Shaw, a special series of evenings of plays that embrace human rights and free speech. All of GTG's programming, inspired by the works of George Bernard Shaw, are designed to provoke peaceful discussion and activism. This series is presented monthly at Symphony Space's Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theatre (2537 Broadway at 95th Street).

David Staller directs a cast that features Christian Conn, Christian DeMarais, Dan Domingues, David Huynh, Teresa Avia Lim, Patrick Page, Patti Perkins, Justin Robertson, Marissa Rosen, Alicia Thomas, Mark Waldrop, Stephanie Weeks, Karen Ziemba, and Robert Zukerman. Mr. Staller, who is the only person to have directed performances of all 65 of Shaw's plays, will be replacing the previously announced Jenn Thompson as director due to scheduling conflicts.

Major Barbara is one of Shaw's most popular and controversial plays. Written as a drawing-room comedy, there are few if any hot-topics Shaw doesn't tackle. In this dazzling work, the title character is one of the wealthiest heiresses in the world, but has chosen a life of service in the Salvation Army. Her father, whom she barely knows, comes back into the family's world and everyone's life is irrevocably changed forever. Shaw creates some of his most memorable characters in this play! We're reminded of the vital importance of taking an active part in our own life and to never take anything for granted.
