Good(-)/None dust jacket as issued condition. PYGMALION, a radical reworking of Ovid's classic tale with a feminist twist. Shaw wrote PYGMALION for the actress Mrs. Patrick Campbell who appeared to be the onlyactress willing to say the taboo word "bloody" spoken by her character Eliza Doolittle. In 1938 the play was made into an excellent movie, for which Shaw's screenplay won an Oscar, starring Leslie Howard as Professor Higgins. The play reached a much wider audience when it was transformed by Alan Jay Lerner into the musical MY FAIR LADY and later the film of the same title directed by George Cukor and starring Rex Harrison and Audrey Hepburn who replaced an irate Julie Andrews the star of the Broadway musical. The Irish playwright, who wrote more plays than Shakespeare, won the Nobel Prize in 1925 and lived to the age of 94 dying from complications resulting from a broken leg suffered after falling out of a tree. Really good price! No Reserve! InvCode: zg50 Size: 5 x 7.
