Pygmalion is a play by George Bernard Shaw that tells the story of Henry Higgins, a phonetics professor, who makes a bet that he can transform Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, into a refined lady by teaching her proper English and manners. As Eliza undergoes this transformation, she challenges Higgins' beliefs about class, society, and gender roles. The play explores themes of identity, social mobility, and the power of language, highlighting the complexities of social hierarchy and human relationships.
