Lyric Poetry

Taking place on a single day in May 1909, a self-made millionaire and his family invite their future nobleman-in-law for a visit to their estate in Surrey, England. In this delightfully clever play, issues of gender, class, politics and family are all targets for Shaw's keen wit.

An L.A. Theatre Works full cast performance featuring:

Tom Beyer as Bentley Summerhays Joy Gregory as Hypatia Roger Rees as Lord Summerhays W. Morgan Sheppard as Mr. Tarleton Eric Stoltz as Johnny Tarleton Victoria Tennant as Mrs. Tarleton Serena Scott Thomas as Lina Szczepanowska Tegan West as Joey Percival Douglas Weston as Gunner/Julius Baker

Includes an interview with Eda Holmes, the Associate Director of the Shaw Festival Theatre in Ontario, Canada.

Directed by Eric Simonson. Recorded before a live audience at the DoubleTree Suites, Santa Monica in January of 2003.
