Modern, enlightened, man-about-town Leonard Charteris would love to marry exotic forward-thinking Grace Tranfield. However, his girlfriend, the dramatic Julia Craven, has a number of issues with this. Chiefly, she's convinced she loves him and is determined to keep him at all cost. Set in the physical and intellectually-trendy "Ibsen Club," Charteris employs all his charm and wit not only to get round Grace's father, but also to charm Julia's eccentric family and the oddly determined Dr. Paramore as well.  "What is often thought of as advanced is in reality either ‘retro' or centuries
old. Similarly, what people currently view as mature or sophisticated is in fact nothing more than immaturity in fancy dress. In the Philanderer, Shaw's left no windy prologue; he's content to let his words and wit stand as writ. Therein lies the fun: a neat depiction of adult children kicking-about in
their ideological sandbox; sometimes outrageous funny, sometimes poignantly humorous, with loads of vulnerability, and always engaging."  BArt Williams - Director.
