"Augustus Does His Bit: A True-to-Life Farce" by Bernard Shaw is a one-act play written in 1916. Set during World War I, this comedy follows the pompous Lord Augustus Highcastle as he faces off against a cunning female spy.

Through flattery and deception, the encounter tests whether aristocratic pride can match clever manipulation in
matters of wartime espionage. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
