Don Juan in Hell is a play, based on the Don Juan legend, by George Bernard Shaw.


The original text

The text is a dream sequence, a debate between Juan, the Devil, the Commander and Doña Ana, about the respective the advantages of Hell (art, beauty, love, pleasure) and Heaven (rational discourse and promulgation of the Life Force). Taken from Act III of Shaw's Man and Superman, it is today often performed as an independent play under this title, and has also been published as such.
