jan 1, 1913 - Pygmalion

Description:

Written by Irish playwriter George Bernard Shaw Pygmalion, named after the Greek mythological figure, was first presented on stage in German and has since been translated into other languages. I have included it in my timelines as, shaw effectively used humour to challenge class, gender, and language norms, influencing satire into theatre, by mocking the upper class and reversing gender dynamics.
