THEATER: The Irish Repertory Theatre has turned to Dublin native George Bernard Shaw’s comedy The Devil’s Disciple, which was his first financial success in 1897 after a string of money-losers. Set in America during the Revolutionary War, the play concerns Dick Dudgeon, a young rebel who begins acting out against his absurdly pious mother. A case of mistaken identity soon leads him to into trouble with the British, and the play ultimately spins into a courtroom farce. Kat Chamberlain calls it “a deliriously enjoyable comedy with flashes of biting and brilliant insight.” – John Del Signore
