Sunday Readings in the Park: Village Wooing / The Dark Lady of the Sonnets

By George Bernard Shaw // Directed by Charlotte Donachie

Sunday Readings in the Park comes to a close with two one-act plays by George Bernard Shaw.

In the first, a comedy entitled Village Wooing, 'A’ is trying to get on with his work, and by that: his life, but he is continually interrupted by the chatty ‘Z’, another passenger on a cruise liner.

Appropriately, the season concludes with The Dark Lady of the Sonnets, a charming comedy where Shakespeare, accidentally encountering Queen Elizabeth I, presents the case for a National Theatre.
