Pygmalion (1913) is a captivating play by George Bernard Shaw, inspired by the timeless Greek myth. It follows the transformative journey of Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, as she becomes the subject of an audacious bet made by phonetics professor Henry Higgins. With the help of Colonel Pickering, Higgins is determined to refine Elizas speech and manners, aiming to pass her off as a lady of high society. As their relationship deepens, Eliza finds herself at a crossroads, ultimately choosing to reject Higginss controlling nature in favor of her own independence and love for Freddy Eynsford-Hill, a kind-hearted but poor gentleman. This enchanting story laid the groundwork for the beloved film adaptation My Fair Lady, featuring Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison. (Summary by Wikipedia/Gesine)
