We’ll celebrate this universally beloved show, often called the greatest musical of all time, by following its long journey from its beginnings as Shaw’s 1912 play "Pygmalion" and then as a popular 1938 film. Then we'll learn how Lerner and Loewe managed to fashion this difficult material – an intellectual drawing room comedy – into such a stunning musical theatre triumph.
