P-03 Pygmalion

Andrews University Theatre Wing (AUTW) performed a fully adapted version of George Bernard Shaw’s play, Pygmalion, on both the 28th and 29th of March, 2015. While directing the production, I attempted to highlight the mutual transformation of Eliza Doolittle, and Professor Henry Higgins. In the essay, I will reflect and detail the ways in which the performance either succeeded or failed in achieving interdisciplinary representation, originality, and effectively communicating specific themes, including: class binaries, beauty, and personal growth and transformation by comparing and contrasting the development of the main characters throughout the production
