Misalliance
by Bernard Shaw
During a quiet weekend in the early 1900's at the estate of John Tarleton (the owner of the hugely successful "Tarleton's Underwear" business), disputes arise between family members and their guests Lord Summerhays and his fool-of-a-son Bentley, who is engaged to Tarleton's daughter, Hypatia. A plane crash brings two interesting additions to the house, changing the dynamics of the group in surprising ways.
