A comedy of letters adapted from the correspondence between George Bernard Shaw and Mrs. Patrick Campbell. It recreates their intriguing relationship in all its aspects over the years.

Naseeruddin Shah calls Dear Liar "a parting gift" from the late Satyadev Dubey, the great director and enfant terrible of the Indian stage. Jerome Kilty’s play dramatises the 40-year correspondence between Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw and English actress Mrs. Patrick Campbell that flowered at the end of the 19th Century. It was a bittersweet relationship, as both were married to other people.

Shah and his actress-wife Ratna Pathak Shah have essayed the passionate, terrifically talented egotists in Dear Liar across two decades.
