Synopsis "Pigmalión (in Spanish)"

El profesor Henry Higgins, un experto en fonética, hace una simple apuesta con su amigo, el coronel Pickings: convertir a Eliza Doolittle, una humilde vendedora de flores, a hablar y comportarse como una dama de la alta sociedad en tan sólo seis meses.
Haciendo alusión a la mitología de Ovidio, podemos ver que no sólo la personalidad de Eliza empieza a cambiar, sino que también vemos desarrollar un enamoramiento entre el profesor Higgins y Eliza.
Sin embargo, la obra no es sólo una comedia sobre el poder de la educación y el lenguaje, sino que también se plantea profundas cuestiones sobre la identidad, la clase social y las relaciones humanas.

George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) was an influential Irish playwright, critic, and essayist, known for his sharp satire and witty style. He primarily wrote plays, excelling in social drama and comedies with critical content. His most famous work, Pygmalion (1913), inspired the renowned musical adaptation My Fair Lady. He also wrote Saint Joan (1923), Man and Superman (1903), and Widowers' Houses (1892), among many others.

Shaw received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1925 for his contribution to literature, especially for his influence on modern theater. His legacy continues thanks to his ability to combine humor, irony, and social criticism in his writings, establishing himself as one of the most significant figures in English-language theater.
