Man and Superman
George Bernard Shaw's Man and Superman is a comedy of ideas: its characters discuss ideas such as capitalism, social reform and male and female roles in courtship. The plot centers on John Tanner, author of "The Revolutionist's Handbook and Pocket Companion." Tanner is a confirmed bachelor despite the pursuits of Ann Whitefield and her persistent effors to make him marry her. Ann is referredt to as "the Life Force" and represents Shaw's view that in every culture, it is the women who force the men to marry them rather than the men who take the initiative. For the most part, the mood of Man and Superman is wry and light-hearted. Although Shaw addresses some serious intellectual and philosophical issues in the play, he also succeeds in making his audience laugh while they are thinking.
