“You want a training ground for good pious wives?” Mary Woolley says, tossing in a vulgarity. I say: If a man is interested in headless women, send him to France.”Thus begins the pugnacious, tender and gloriously funny new play “Bull in a China Shop,” Bryna Turner’s immensely auspicious professional playwriting debut. Onstage at LCT3’s Claire Tow Theater in Lee Sunday Evans’s warm, lucid, handsomely designed production, they are radiant with life. “You want a revolution?” Marks (Ruibo Qian) asks Woolley. (The playwright pointedly names them Woolley and Marks, not Mary and Jeannette.)
