- Review of Androcles and the Lion at the Shaw Festival.
- This reminds me that the house programmes for the Shaw Festival productions of Androcles and the Lion and Saint Joan are available for download. The authors of the essays in both programmes may sound familiar.
- My Fair Lady at Olney Theatre Center. Here is another review of the same production.
- One of the many publications on the medical profession that quote Shaw's "Preface on Doctors."
- Shaw as a forerunner of "scientism as a pejorative"
- Donald Kerr, head of Special Collections at the University of Otago Library has recently published an article, available behind a paywall here, where he explains that "“when Shaw visited New Zealand he was given a number of typed questions to answer about the country. He answered them all from memory, using red ink. This small collection was donated for the Churchill Auction in 1942 and was secured by the Library Committee at Auckland Public Library. It now sits in the Sir George Grey Special Collections, Auckland City Library.” In addition, he has brought to my attention Shaw's comments on Sir Frederic Truby King, used as the epigram of this exhibition. This quotation, he tells me, can be traced back to Sir Frederick's biography by her adopted daughter, Mary.
- Shaw seems to have influenced stand-up comedians as well.
