Book excerpt: How He Lied to Her Husband By George Bernard Shaw Classic Plays Brand New Edition How He Lied to Her Husband is a one-act comedy play by George Bernard Shaw, who wrote it, at the request of actor Arnold Daly, over a period of four days while he was vacationing in Scotland in 1905. In its preface he described it as "a sample of what can be done with even the most hackneyed stage framework by filling it in with an observed touch of actual humanity instead of with doctrinaire romanticism." He added, "Nothing in the theatre is staler than the situation of husband, wife and lover, or the fun of knockabout farce. I have taken both, and got an original play out of them, as anybody else can if only he will look about him for his material instead of plagiarizing Othello and the thousand plays that have proceeded on Othello's romantic assumptions and false point of honor." The original 1905 cast were Harley Granville-Barker as Henry Apjohn, A. G. Poulton as Teddy Bompas, and Gertrude Kingston as Aurora Bompas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How He Lied to Her Husband is a short, one-act play by George Bernard Shaw, first performed in 1904. This comedic work serves as a satirical counterpart to Shaw's earlier play "Candida" and showcases Shaw's sharp wit and keen observation of human relationships and societal norms. Set in London, the play revolves around a love triangle involving a young poet, Henry Apjohn, who is enamored with Aurora Bompas, a beautiful, married woman. The intrigue begins when Aurora discovers that Henry has written passionate love poems to her, which she fears might fall into the hands of her husband, Teddy Bompas. The situation takes a humorous turn when the husband confronts Henry, leading to unexpected developments that challenge traditional notions of love, honor, and marital fidelity. Shaw cleverly subverts the conventional love triangle trope by infusing the narrative with irony and comedic misunderstandings. The characters, while seemingly adhering to societal expectations, reveal their true selves in the face of potential scandal, highlighting the absurdity and complexity of human relationships. "How He Lied to Her Husband" is notable for its concise structure, sharp dialogue, and the way it playfully addresses themes of romantic idealism versus the realities of marriage. Shaw's comedic touch provides a light-hearted critique of the pretensions and vanities of high society, making the play a delightful and insightful exploration of love, jealousy, and the art of deception.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How He Lied To Her Husband - A One Act Play - By George Bernard Shaw. The three-character play is set in the drawing room of a flat located on Cromwell Road in London. Shaw describes Henry Apjohn as "a very beautiful youth, moving as in a dream, walking as on air," while Aurora Bompas has "an air of being a young and beautiful woman but as a matter of hard fact, she is, dress and pretensions apart, a very ordinary South Kensington female of about 37, hopelessly inferior in physical and spiritual distinction to the beautiful youth." The third character is Aurora's husband Teddy, "a robust, thicknecked, well groomed city man, with a strong chin but a blithering eye and credulous mouth." Aurora is distressed because she has misplaced some poems, in which she is identified by name, written for her with declarations of love by the impetuous Henry. She suspects her sister-in-law Georgina stole them from her workbox and is concerned she will read them to Aurora's husband Teddy. Henry suggests they confront Teddy with the truth, "quietly, hand in hand" and depart - "without concealment and subterfuge, freely and honestly, in full honor and self-respect" - for their planned evening at the theatre. (Henry has purchased tickets for Candida - the popular Shaw comedy which Henry and Aurora's situation closely resembles - because Lohengrin was sold out.) The two engage in a discussion about the merits of revealing their affair until Teddy arrives and confronts Henry with his poetry. The young man tries to convince him they were inspired by Aurora, the goddess of dawn, rather than his wife, and assures him he has no interest in the woman Teddy married . . . which the cuckolded man finds so insulting he demands Henry admit how desirable Aurora is. Henry finally confesses his love for Aurora, which pleases Teddy so much he proposes he have the poems published on "the finest paper, sumptuous binding, everything first class" as a tribute to his wife. "What shall we call the volume?," Teddy asks. "To Aurora, or something like that, eh?," to which Henry replies, "I should call it How He Lied to Her Husband."Like many other works of mine, this playlet is a piece d'occasion. In 1905 it happened that Mr Arnold Daly, who was then playing the part of Napoleon in The Man of Destiny in New York, found that whilst the play was too long to take a secondary place in the evening's performance, it was too short to suffice by itself. I therefore took advantage of four days continuous rain during a holiday in the north of Scotland to write How He Lied To Her Husband for Mr Daly. In his hands, it served its turn very effectively. I print it here as a sample of what can be done with even the most hackneyed stage framework by filling it in with an observed touch of actual humanity instead of with doctrinaire romanticism. Nothing in the theatre is staler than the situation of husband, wife and lover, or the fun of knockabout farce. I have taken both, and got an original play out of them, as anybody else can if only he will look about him for his material instead of plagiarizing Othello and the thousand plays that have proceeded on Othello's romantic assumptions and false point of honor.
