SHAW,S MGD, MAD WORLD GF FARCE P01 D PETRIFACTIO if QF' rs is While the lover lays dead as the hus- band, who poisoned him, gloats over his body, Phyllis. the maid lLeanne Nloldowanl scurrics around batting her eyelashes and squealing in a high voice. The most modern of the three plays, Passion, Poison and Petrifactioni' takes place in a fashion- able quarter of London. The plot involves only farce as unbelievable things happen throughout the play. A lover, dressed in lace, is poisoned by a jealous husband as he unsuspectingly has a social drink. When the wife finds out he has been poisoned, she finds anything containing lime ta plaster bust, the ceiling? to try to counteract the poison. As they are tearing up the ceiling and the lover is moaning on the coach on the verge of dying, the landlord appears in the door. And be- fore the audience can collect their wits, a police- man makes his appearance, too. And in the midst of all this confusion, Phyllis, the maid is squealing and running in and out, flirting with every man on the stage. Starring in this very enjoyable play were: Lady Fitztollemache, Kathy Kohls, Phyllis, Leanne Moldowang George Fitztollemache, Richard Towne, Adolphus, jan Hall, the landlord, Glenn 69 Reis, the police constable, Donald Wood, the -1 doctor, Dan Ames, and the Choir of Invisible Angels, the Chamber Singers.
