Pedro Calderón de la Barca escribió algunas de las comedias, zarzuelas y autos sacramentales preferidos por el público de su tiempo y de la actualidad.

Se trata de una comedia moralizante donde el proposito del autor es modificar las normas de conducta de una sociedad carente de decoro, proponiendole un modelo donde prevalece la razon sobre la pasion y el sentimiento.
