Pygmalion- Fingerprint

Henry Higgins, a phonetician, agrees to coach and groom Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, and transform her into a socially acceptable person, no less than a duchess. But in the process he begins to admire her. And where this leads is both hilarious and amusing.

"I sold flowers. I didnt sell myself. Now youve made a lady of me Im not fit to sell anything else."

A stinging satire on the British class system, George Bernard Shaws Pygmalion, with its true to life characters, was a sensational success which went on to become one of his most popular plays. Having undergone various adaptations, the most widely known being the American musical My Fair Lady, the play continues to tug at the heartstrings of its audiences even more than a century after its first performance.
