CONQUERING SHAW Every month, the theatrical group Project Shaw presents a work by George Bernard Shaw, who died in 1950. The goal is to stage every sketch, one-act, and full-length piece by the playwright over the course of four years, giving New York audiences a chance to revisit Shaw’s work. This month, the program includes two plays: “The Fascinating Foundling” and “Farfetched Fables,” produced and directed by David Staller. In “The Fascinating Foundling,” written in 1909, a man and a woman are unwavering about what they will and won’t tolerate in a mate. A lawyer unwittingly helps the picky pair find one another. “Farfetched Fables,” from 1949, takes audiences on six separate journeys, beginning in 1949 and spanning several decades into the future. The play highlights life’s absurdities and how little people change over time. Tonight, 7 p.m., the Players Club, 16 Gramercy Park South, East 20th Street, between Irving Place and Park Avenue South, 212-352-3101, $20.
