On January 27, the Bronnaya Theater will host the premiere of the play “Pygmalion”, based on the play “Pygmalion” by George Bernard Shaw. This was reported by the press service of the cultural institution.
Director Sergei Kalvarsky, who previously produced the TV series “Fisher”, transferred the plot of Bernard Shaw’s play from London at the beginning of the 20th century to modern Moscow in the new production.
“Bernard Shaw himself defined the purpose of his play: “Pygmalion” is the laughing stock of fans of the “blue blood” … each of my plays was a stone that I threw at the windows of Victorian prosperity.” The new “blue blood” are the nouveau riche, bloggers, internet stars, coaches and other inhabitants of the virtual world. Is it possible to throw a stone at this window, where will it bounce? – thinks the director.
Irish playwright Bernard Shaw wrote the play Pygmalion in 1912. Inspired by the ancient legend about the sculptor Pygmalion, the main character of the game is Eliza Dolittle, a street florist who transforms into an aristocratic duchess in six months.
