"Pygmalion," a play by George Bernard Shaw, follows the story of Professor Henry Higgins, a phonetics expert who makes a bet that he can transform Eliza Doolittle, a poor flower girl with a strong Cockney accent, into a refined lady who can speak fluent English. As Higgins takes Eliza under his wing, they navigate the complexities of class and identity in early 20th-century England. Throughout the transformation, Eliza struggles with her sense of self-worth and independence, ultimately challenging Higgins’ notions of class and language. The play explores themes of social mobility, gender roles, and the nature of identity. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
