Candida is a comedy by playwright George Bernard Shaw. It was first published in 1898, as part of his Plays Pleasant.

The plot concerns Candida, a clergyman's wife, and Marchbanks, a young poet who wants to rescue her from what he presumes to be a dull family life. The play questions Victorian notions of love and marriage, asking what a woman really wants her husband to provide her with.

Additionally, because the clergyman is a Fabian Socialist, as was Shaw, various political issues of the time are also part of the plot.

Between 1904 and 1907 The Royal Court Theatre staged several of George Bernard Shaw plays, including Candida.
