The Apple Cart

It is a satirical comedy about several political philosophies which are explored in a particularly lively way by some of the most fascinating and entertaining characters ever devised by the imagination of G.B.S. The plot follows the fictional English King Magnus as he spars with, and ultimately outwits, Prime Minister Proteus and his cabinet, who seek to strip the monarchy of its remaining political influence. In the midst of the behind-the-scene political machinations, King Magnus also has to deal with the most demanding and glamorous mistress ever seen! 

These script-in-hand all-star readings are always sold out.

Each month, Project Shaw brings you either one of Shaw’s scintillating plays or a play by those who shared his ‘art as activism’ view of life. This is the acclaimed staged reading series that has been playing to sold-out crowds for the last 15 years!

“Gingold Theatrical Group provides an invaluable — and unique — service to New Yorkers. Not only does it keep topnotch productions of great works of art before the public on a regular basis as no other theater company can, but it also does something less obvious. It keeps the tradition of intelligent argument, embodied in Shaw’s plays but otherwise much lacking from public discourse, alive for those who need it most: the thinking people of a great city.” — Jesse Green, New York Magazine.
