Pear Theatre Presents MAJOR BARBARA This Fall
By: Louisa Brady
Pear Theatre continues its 2016-17 season with the George Bernard Shaw classic, MAJOR BARBARA, a thought-provoking look at human nature, morality, religion, and social engineering. Which is a greater danger, the decline of morality and virtue, or rampant poverty, sickness, and deprivation? Are wealth and warfare to be despised if they are the fastest means to lifting the general populace out of misery? Coming at the height of the election season, MAJOR BARBARA shines the light of Shaw's analytical wit on serious questions that continue to impact the state of our union. Directed by Jeanie K. Smith.
