To mark the 50th anniversary of his death, Bernard Shaw 's paradoxical masterpiece was specially recorded in Los Angeles with a distinguished cast of American and British actors. Set against the background of the War of Independence, the play remains topical, witty and provoking. In classic
Shavian fashion, received wisdom is turned upside-down, loyalties are unconventional, appearances frequently deceiving and the outcome surprising. As a postscript to tonight's play Martin Jarvis reads from Shaw's preface to The Devil's Disciple.
Soldiers and townsfolk played by students of the film and theatre department, UCLA. California. led by Michael Hackett. Director Martin Jenkins. Producer Rosalind Ayres. Programme of the Week: page 135
