The Old Vic brings George Bernard Shaw’s iconic Pygmalion back to the stage with a star-studded cast directed by the Olivier and Tony Award-winning director Richard Jones.
Patsy Ferran (nominated for an Olivier for her role in the recent West End hit A Streetcar Named Desire) stars as the indomitable Eliza Doolittle. Taking on the role of Professor Henry Higgins is the multi-award-winning Bertie Carvel who is currently playing Tony Blair in the final series of The Crown.
An explosively funny, biting and subversive satire on the British class system, in Pygmalion the ruthless linguist Higgins attempts to transform the brilliantly irrepressible cockney flower seller Eliza into a London high society Lady.
