Shaw shakes the dust off the Cinderella story and tells it as only he can—with sharp humor, unforgettable characters, and witty dialogue. Pygmalion will invite your students to examine class prejudice and come to the realization that outward appearances do not accurately depict the true value of a human being.

As a linguist, I thoroughly enjoyed Shaw's look at the intersection of class and dialect.
