Shaw Doubted Reception
Although Shaw thought that
"Heartbreak House" was one of
his best plays, he was 'reluctant
about publishing it rt because he
was doubtful about its reception
by the critics and the public.
His doubts seemed to be well
formed for in 1921, when the play
opened at the Royal Court Thea
tre in London, it ran only seven
weeks because of a back stage
accident which not only delayed
the curtain time but also caused
much criticism and many poor
press reviews.
"Heartbreak House" is thought
to,be the only play which Shaw,
always eager to enlighten the
critics and public as to the mean
ing - of his woks, refused to ex
plain.
"Just as I am not an explicable
phenomenon, neither is "Heart
break House," Shaw said.
Setting -is 'Shiplike Room'
The play, which takes place in
a "shiplike room" of the Captain's
house, has an atmosphere of aim
lessness, futility, and frustration.
Through the Captain's eyeg we
learn of England's lack of leader
ship and its idle people.
Included in the cast are Walter
Vail as Captain Shotover, the
mystic navigator who can read
God's intent and knows that it is
not being followed; Rosemary
Keating as Ellie, who is poor in
goods but rich in spirit; and Ju
dith Utterback as Hesione Husha
bye, an enlightened realist but a
total failure.
