What happens when a man who loves flirting meets women who expect more than charm? This satirical comedy follows Leonard Charteris, a self-proclaimed "advanced" man who believes in freedom from emotional ties-until he becomes entangled in a triangle of his own making. Set against the backdrop of Victorian-era gender politics and drawing-room sophistication, the play pokes fun at hypocrisy, scientific pretensions, and the complexities of modern relationships. Shaw explores love not as an ideal, but as a negotiation between intellect, ego, and social expectation. The result is a lively, sharply observed drama where no one escapes unscathed and the audience is left laughing at truths they recognize all too well.
