George Bernard Shaw was an Irish playwright whose works masterfully blend incisive social commentary with humor.

Shaw employed comedy as a vehicle to make stark themes more palatable, showcasing his dramatic talent across more than sixty plays. A committed socialist and orator, Shaw advocated for social justice and equality through his writing, public speaking, and political engagement.
