One of Shaw’s finest plays, Pygmalion won acclaim in Gabriel Pascal’s 1938 motion picture adaptation and achieved further notice in 1956, adapted into the musical My Fair Lady also later a successful film. In this seminal comedy of class distinctions, a fussy British phonetics professor, Henry Higgins, wagers that he can transform guttersnipe cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, into a lady of breeding, voice and manners in London’s Ascot society with surprising results.
