By George Bernard Shaw

Directed by Artistic Associate Shawn Douglass

 

 

When Shaw saw The Importance of Being Earnest, he decided to show Oscar Wilde how to really write comedy. The result was You Never Can Tell, loaded with dazzling wit and pointed jabs at the turn of the century British society. It’s a holiday treat for the whole family.

 

Shawn Douglass, who directed our acclaimed production of Earnest, is back at the helm, and Greg Matthew Anderson is back on the boards, in this multi-generational romp of mistaken identity and ever-changing relationships at a seaside resort. Will lovers unite? Will the children ever learn who their father is? Will parents' wills prevail? Will the twins ever shut up? And will these men survive Shaw's "woman of the 20^th century"? You never can tell.
