In Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion, Professor Higgins turns the flower girl Eliza into a lady, but instead of a grateful and submissive Galatea, he comes face to face with an angry and self-aware girl who has lost her place in life. And in Mrs. Warren's Profession, Vivie, proud of her independence, is forced not only to admit that her freedom is paid for by her mother's "unworthy" choice, but also to see her own reflection in the hypocrisy of those around her. Like all the best comedies in the history of literature, Bernard Shaw's plays are mirrors in which everyone sees themselves. They are known for their causticity and wit, behind which the uncomfortable truth does not even try to hide - here it is, right in front of you, and it is you who hide from it, squinting with laughter. Are you ready to open them wider? The texts of the comedies are published in English without adaptation and abbreviations.
