Synopsis: Puffs, or Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic is a Harry Potter parody. The comedy follows the lives of the wizard classmates who, unlike Harry and his friends, weren't in the limelight.
“Some people are born to change the world. Some people are born with the capacity to do great things. Some people are born to rise from humble beginnings to beat back the forces of darkness in the face of insurmountable odds,” state show notes. “[Puffs] is the story of the people who sit in class next to those people.”*Content Warning: mature language and social situations

Synopsis: The play takes place entirely on a single Saturday afternoon in the conservatory of a large country house in Hindhead, Surrey in Edwardian era England.
It is a continutation on somve of Shaw's ideas on marriage, Socialism, physical fitness, and women intent on escaping Victorian standards of helplessness, passivity, stuffy propriety, and non-involvement in politics or general affairs.
Misalliance is an ironic examination of the mating instincts of a varied group of people gathered at a wealthy man's country home on a summer weekend. Most of the romantic interest centers on the host's daughter, Hypatia Tarleton, a typical Shaw heroine who exemplifies his lifelong theory that in courtship, women are the relentless pursuers and men the apprehensively pursued.
