It just so happens that the Roundabout Theatre Company is doing a production of it in New York with Claire Danes. Go to the New York Times and find the review of it. It's got some interesting observations/insights as to what Mr Shaw was intending to do when he wrote it. Needless to say there are volumes of critical essays on Mr Shaw and his work.

The Pygmalion result (or Rosenthal result) refers to circumstances wherein scholars carry out greater useful than different scholars because of the fact they are estimated to take action. "Pygmalion" refers to a sculptor who fell in love with one in each of his sculptures, or perhaps the sculpture became real, yet i'm uncertain. besides, Eliza became right into a figurative Pygmalion. **Rita, that may no longer the question!

Why did Mozart write music? Why did Shakespeare write Julius Caesar, when he never wrote him back? Why did Hemingway write The Sun Also Rises? Why did Rick let Ilsa get on that Plane to Lisbon? Why do clocks run clockwise? Why do fools fall in love?
