First published in 1903, ‘Man and Superman’ by George Bernard Shaw is a witty and intellectually rich play that explores themes of love, marriage, human nature, and philosophical evolution. Blending romantic comedy with deep existential inquiry, Shaw presents a sharp satire on societal norms and gender roles.
The story follows John Tanner, a self-proclaimed revolutionary and confirmed bachelor, who is unexpectedly named guardian to the spirited Ann Whitefield after her father’s death. Unbeknownst to Tanner, Ann has already chosen him as her future husband and cleverly sets out to overcome his resistance. As Tanner tries to escape his perceived romantic fate, he embarks on a journey that leads to the famous dream sequence—“Don Juan in Hell”—where abstract ideas about life, love, and the “Life Force” are debated by philosophical counterparts.
Shaw’s brilliant dialogue, layered humor, and fearless critique of Victorian values make ‘Man and Superman’ a unique fusion of comedy and serious thought. The play challenges readers and audiences alike to reconsider their views on societal expectations and the evolution of human purpose.
A landmark of modern theatre, ‘Man and Superman’ remains a compelling exploration of the eternal conflict between idealism and reality, freedom and desire.
