Pygmalion

“The difference between a Lady and flower girl isn’t how she behaves, but how she is treated”

Eliza Doolittle is a Cockney flower girl with big dreams.

Henry Higgins is a brash Professor of Speech with a big ego.

When a chance encounter sparks a daring bet, Eliza is catapulted from the rainy streets of Covent Garden to the top of Edwardian High Society. Can she pass for a Duchess or will the experiment expose more than just her accent?

Following their acclaimed national tour of The Importance of Being Earnest, HangFire Theatre return with a sparkling new adaptation of Bernard Shaw’s hilarious and heartfelt satire on identity and class which inspired the hit musical My Fair Lady.
