A witty retelling of the classic tale of a sculptor falling in love with his flawless creation, Pygmalionis a subtle attack on the British class system while highlighting Shaw's feminist ideology.Professor Higgins asserts to his friend, Colonel Pickering, that he can disguise a regular flowergirl as a duchess just by teaching her the mannerisms and speech of the upper class society. In thecourse of the flower girl’s ‘upgradation,’ she transforms into a beautiful and accomplished lady. ToHiggins, however, she remains a mere successful experiment leaving her out of both the worlds: theone she stepped out of and the one she never felt a part of.
