In the 1890s, audiences were yearning for substance over superficiality in theatre, prompting Shaw to challenge conventional narratives. Through three thought-provoking plays, he skillfully blended traditional dramatic forms such as Victorian melodrama, history plays, and adventure stories. These works aim to subvert commonly held beliefs, providing a fresh perspective on societal norms and encouraging deeper contemplation among viewers.
