Description

Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw, named after a Greek mythological figure.

It was first presented on stage to the public in 1913.

Its English-language premiere took place at Her Majesty's Theatre in the West End in April 1914 and starred Herbert Beerbohm Tree as phonetics professor Henry Higgins and Mrs Patrick Campbell as Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle.

Shaw's play has been adapted numerous times, most notably as the 1938 film Pygmalion, the 1956 musical My Fair Lady and its 1964 film version.

The play was well received by critics in major cities following its premieres in Vienna, London, and New York.

It was the most broadly appealing of all Shaw's plays.
