Long Beach Playhouse – MainStage (Long Beach, CA)

"Arms and the Man"

A hilarious satire about the irony of war and fallacy of romantic ideals, Arms and the Man is often regarded by scholars as George Bernard Shaw’s funniest play — and it was his first big theatrical hit. This light comedy begins when an armed soldier in 1895 Bulgaria breaks into a young woman’s bedroom and demands refuge. Poking fun at both the dangers of bravado and the idealistic notions of romantic love, Arms and the Man proves that you can find love — and humor — in war.
