Her father, whom she barely knows, comes back into the family’s world, and everyone’s life is irrevocably changed forever.“We’re beginning our 15th season of Project Shaw with one of the most requested of all Shaw plays and, given the provocative approach to comedy, story-telling, and rich character, it’s easy to see why people love it. It’s a comedy about checking our own moral compass and connecting to our true heart. Not easy, of course, but it’s the perfect time of year for taking stock and new beginnings!” said Staller in an earlier statement.The season will continue February 24 with What Every Woman Knows by J.M. Barrie, directed by Kathy MacGowan.
