**********

“He’s no right to take away my character. My character is the same to me as any lady’s.”

After a chance meeting, Professor Henry Higgins sets about transforming flower girl Eliza Doolittle into a duchess at ease in polite society.

In her journey from guttersnipe to lady, irrepressible Eliza fights to preserve her reputation and independence.

Will upper-class society accept her as one of their own, or will Eliza never forget who she really is?

Both delighting and scandalising its first audiences in 1914, George Bernard Shaw’s classic is an explosively funny and biting commentary on class, gender, and what it means to be yourself.

The inspiration for the musical ‘My Fair Lady’, the story has captivated audiences for decades.
