The Washington Stage Guild will conclude its 2021-2022 season with Memoirs of a Forgotten Man by D.W. Gregory. The play, which had its world premiere at The Contemporary American Theatre Festival in 2018, takes place in the Stalinist Soviet Union, where a man’s inability to forget those whom the government has “erased” becomes increasingly problematic for him and his family.

A dramatic reading of letters Shaw exchanged with the actress Mrs. Patrick Campbell reveals the strong-willed woman who captured Shaw’s heart and inspired the playwright’s iconic Eliza Doolittle.

The Washington Stage Guild continues our series of online presentations with a play perfectly suited to an online format.  To follow our well-received streamed performances of George Bernard Shaw’s Don Juan in Hell, The Devil’s Disciple and How He Lied to Her Husband, we offer a play that explores the private life of our “house playwright,”  George Bernard Shaw - Jerome Kilty’s 1957 epistolary play, Dear Liar, streaming free of charge from September 29th at 8 PM through October 3rd at 8 PM.
