The reading at the Players Club will boast the talents of Daphne Rubin-Vega, Donna Lynne Champlin, Josh Grisetti and Victor Slezak. Show time is 7 PM. The Six of Calais is described as "the legendary story of how an extremely pregnant queen helped save the town of Calais from utter devastation." The Simpleton of the Unexpected Isles is "Shaw's inventive experiment in living: commune life between three couples and the world-wide uproar it inspires."

The Project Shaw series is produced and directed by David Staller, who acted with Dana Ivey in Shaw's Mrs. Warren's Profession at the Irish Repertory Theatre. The series intends to offer every sketch, full-length and one-act play by the late playwright.

Past participants include Blair Brown, Mark Kudisch, Kerry Butler, Tyne Daly, Jonathan Hadary, Daniel Jenkins, Rebecca Luker, Michael Cerveris, Karen Ziemba, Michele Pawk, Bruce Vilanch, Jack Gilpin and George S. Irving.
