Gingold Theatrical Group's Pooject Shaw presents a play reading of In Good King Charles's Golden Days, by George Bernard Shaw, at The Players Club on 17 Mar 2008.

In Good King Charles's Golden Days: Imagine this: it's 1680 and you're in Isaac Newton's house. In walks King Charles II in hot pursuit by all of his mistresses, including the notorious Nell Gwyn. What follows is a tremendous send-up of philosophy, playwriting, acting and an iconic argument bracing Science against the Arts.
