Pygmalion is a play written by George Bernard Shaw in 1912, which has been adapted into various forms, including the 1938 film Pygmalion, the 1956 musical My Fair Lady, and its 1964 film version. The play was inspired by the ancient Greek myth of Pygmalion, who fell in love with one of his sculptures that came to life. The character of Professor Henry Higgins was inspired by several British professors of phonetics. The play follows the story of Eliza, a flower girl who wishes to talk like a lady, and Higgins, who takes on the challenge of transforming her into a refined lady. The play's ending has been a subject of controversy, with Shaw insisting on a non-romantic ending, while audiences and some critics preferred a happy ending. Pygmalion remains Shaw's most popular play and has been adapted into various films, television shows, and plays.
