George Bernard Shaw 
Candida 
A Play

The Reverend Morell, a socialist preacher, brings a penniless young poet, Eugene Marchbanks, into his home,  which is dominated by his fascinating wife, Candida. With its single stage setting and small cast of six characters, Shaw’s play is deceptively simple. Centered on a romantic triangle and parodying courtly love and the domestic drama of Ibsen,
Candida also abounds with classical allusions, the fervor of a religious revival, and poetic inspiration and aspirations.
