Miss Pauline Chase as Ann Whitfield in Shaw's Man and Superman: Criterion Theatre, London, 1911 (191 performances).
Ann Whitfield is Shaw's new woman, who seems to have a lot in common with some Shakespeare heroines: the determination to get her man of Helena in All's Well, the self-assurance and skepticism of Beatrice in Much Ado, and the social agility of Rosalind in As You Like It.
