In a statement Staller said, "When Shaw finally wrote his one and only ‘Irish play,’ he was ready to look back at his home country with a mixture of irony and love. The balance he finds between high comedy and a needful heart is quite breathtaking. It’s often referred to as his ‘magic’ play."

In John Bull's Other Island, according to press notes, "best friends and business partners, Broadbent and Doyle journey back to Doyle's Irish hometown to buy up land to develop. What they don't count on is the power of the locals, particularly Nora Reilly and the defrocked priest, Keegan (who talks to grasshoppers). In fact, the entire town is full of extraordinary characters conspiring to turn this business trip into a hysterical life-changing weekend for all concerned, fueled by plenty of Potcheen."

Tickets are $30 and are available by calling (212) 864-5400 or online at symphonyspace.org. Symphony Space’s Leonard Nimoy Thalia Theatre is located at 2537 Broadway at 95th Street.
