Set on April Fool's Day 1912, the play imagines Britain under martial law due to suffragette protests. When the Prime Minister disguises himself as a suffragette to reach the War Office, chaos ensues. Through absurd arguments from anti-suffrage leaders and incompetent military officials, Shaw ridicules opponents of women's voting rights without directly stating his pro-feminist views. The play was initially censored for satirizing real politicians. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
