"Santa Juana es una obra dramática escrita por George Bernard Shaw que narra la vida de Juana de Arco, la campesina francesa que lideró ejércitos en nombre de Dios durante la Guerra de los Cien Años. La obra presenta a Juana como una figura extraordinaria y compleja, guiada por una profunda fe y conviccion moral, enfrentandose con valentia a las estructuras politicas, religiosas y sociales de su epoca.Desde sus primeros encuentros con los lideres militares hasta su captura, juicio y ejecucion, Shaw ofrece un retrato profundamente humano de Juana, alejado del misticismo convencional. En lugar de una martir santificada, la presenta como una reformadora, una figura adelantada a su tiempo, con ideas revolucionarias sobre la iglesia, el estado y el rol de la mujer en la sociedad.Con dialogos brillantes y provocadores, Shaw utiliza la historia de Juana para criticar la intolerancia institucional, la corrupcion del poder y los peligros del fanatismo. Santa Juana es tanto un homenaje a la heroina historica como una poderosa reflexion sobre el conflicto entre el individuo y el sistema.Esta obra, cargada de intensidad emocional e inteligencia critica, continua resonando en lectores contemporaneos por su vigencia etica y politica."

And so yes, well, Id simply dropped that whole idea of being a good person, Id dropped it right down into some hole in the street, and down it had gone into the citys sewers, and no one ever saw it again.

Florian Zeller, uno de los dramaturgos franceses vivos más representados en el mundo, llega al cenit de su carrera con estas tres piezas que a su juicio constituyen una "trilogía involuntaria": El hijo, La madre y El padre.En El hijo, el autor abre una critica feroz en torno a la paternidad/maternidad contemporanea centrada en una pregunta: ¿que nos ha pasado para llegar a anteponer al cuidado de un hijo adolescente nuestro estado de animo personal? Un asunto de dolorosa actualidad: los adolescentes solos ante sus convulsas crisis de iniciacion, vulnerables y victimas en definitiva de las fragiles emociones de sus progenitores. El instante en que un hijo te dice: "Tengo la sensacion de que me voy a volver loco". Segun ha expresado en entrevista, Zeller quiere insistir en lo esencial que es afrontar y hablar abiertamente de la depresion y la tendencia suicida en la adolescencia.En La madre aborda Zeller lo que siente una mujer cuando deja de ser el sustento emocional y funcional de su familia. El personaje, emocionalmente dependiente de su hijo, nos coloca frente al sentimiento de soledad no deseada, el vacio y finalmente, la demencia, y nos obliga a plantearnos una cuestion nada banal: ¿el amor de una madre ha de tener un limite? ¿Cuando el amor se convierte en apego?El padre nos sumerge en la mente de un hombre de avanzada edad que inicia y se niega a asumir su deterioro cognitivo, su perdida ya evidente de la memoria y de las coordenadas de espacio y tiempo, y la complejidad creciente de su dependencia del entorno, que no admite a la vez que acusa el vertigo de su desorientacion (¿Estoy en mi casa? No, esta no es mi casa. ¿Has visto mi reloj?)
