Pygmalion (1913) is a play by George Bernard Shaw based on the Greek myth of the same name. It tells the story of Henry Higgins, a professor of phonetics (based on phonetician Henry Sweet), who makes a bet with his friend Colonel Pickering that he can successfully pass off a Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, as a refined society lady by teaching her how to speak with an upper class accent and training her in etiquette. In the process, Higgins and Doolittle grow close, but she ultimately rejects his domineering ways and declares she will marry Freddy Eynsford-Hill – a young, poor, gentleman. - The play was later the basis for the successful movie adaptation "My Fair Lady" with Audrey Hepburn as Eliza and Rex Harrison as Prof. Higgins.

6 SEP 2026 · "Oresteia" by Aeschylus is a powerful trilogy that delves into themes of justice, revenge, and the moral complexities of human nature. This ancient Greek masterpiece explores the consequences of a cycle of violence within a family and the struggle to establish a just society through the establishment of law. Its exploration of fate, divine intervention, and human choice remains profoundly relevant today, as it prompts listeners to reflect on the balance between vengeance and justice in their own lives. The timeless nature of its themes invites audiences to engage with the moral dilemmas that continue to shape our world, making "Oresteia" an enduring classic that resonates across generations.
