SYNOPSIS
Fanny's First Play is a 1911 play by George Bernard Shaw. It was first performed as an anonymous piece, the authorship of which was to be kept secret. However, critics soon recognised it as the work of Shaw. It opened at the Little Theatre in the Adelphi in London on 19 April 1911 and ran for 622 performances. The mystery over the authorship helped to publicise it. It had the longest run of any of Shaw's plays. A second production opened on Broadway on September 16, 1912 for 256 performances. The play toured the provinces in England in the same year. It features a play within a play. In a country house, Fanny O'Dowda, the daughter of the Count O'Dowda, is putting on a play she has written. She has hired professional actors and invited major critics. Fanny, who has studied at Cambridge, is keeping her authorship secret. She expects that her father the Count will disapprove of the play, as he hates the vulgarity of modern life. He has only just returned to Britain from living in Venice.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
George Bernard Shaw
PRÉMIO NOBEL DA LITERATURA 1925
Escritor e crítico literário irlandês, nascido a 26 de julho de 1856, em Dublin, e falecido a 2 de novembro de 1950, foi galardoado com o Prémio Nobel da Literatura em 1925. Oriundo de uma família de poucas posses, nunca frequentou a universidade. Em 1876 mudou-se para Londres e trabalhou como jornalista, embora o seu sonho fosse ser escritor. Nunca deixou de escrever apesar do insucesso dos seus primeiros trabalhos. Tornou-se crítico de teatro, de arte e de música em várias publicações como Saturday Review, Our Corner, The Pall Mall Gazette, The Wordl e The Star.
Como membro da Social Democratic Federation, teve a oportunidade de conhecer a obra de Karl Marx. Desde então tornou-se socialista ativo, membro do Fabian Society, deu palestras e distribuiu panfletos, alguns da sua autoria como The Fabian Manifesto (1884) e Socialism for Millionaires (1901). Participou em várias ações que mais tarde levaram ao aparecimento do Partido Trabalhista (Labour Party). Entretanto escreveu várias peças de carácter político como Arms and the Man (1894), Devil's Disciple (1897), Man and Superman (1902), Major Barbara (1905) e Pygmalion (Pigmalião, 1913). Como socialista convicto, foi um dos opositores à Primeira Guerra Mundial. Após a guerra, escreveu diversas peças de sucesso, como Heartbreak House (1919), Back to Methuselah (1921), St. Joan (1923), The Apple Cart (1929) e Too True to be Good (1932), que lhe proporcionaram o prémio Nobel.
