Phonetics professor Higgins makes a bet that he will turn the street child - the poor flower saleswoman Lisa, into a real lady. At first glance, however, the innocent game of male whimsy becomes a dangerous gamble with a female identity and personality.
Shaw's Pygmalion - a literary masterpiece which the musical My Fair Lady was based on - asks the most important and still unresolved gender issues: Does a man need to transform a woman according to his ideas so that he can fall in love with her? If so, is it love for a woman, or just for an idealized idea? But then how should a woman find her happiness if the way to it is to eradicate her own identity? And finally, what role does authenticity still play in society?
We would like to express our gratitude to AQUACITY POPRAD for allowing us to shoot a video for this production on their premises.
