Henry Higgins, an arrogant, irascible
professor, finds an impoverished young woman, Eliza Doolittle,
selling flowers and boasts to a friend, Colonel Pickering, that he
can train her to speak so "properly" that he could pass her off as a
duchess. Eliza finds her way to the professor's house and offers to
pay the professor to give her elocution lessons so that she can get
a better job. A wager is made with Colonel Pickering that Higgins
cannot achieve this and he takes her on as a challenge of his skills
free of charge.
Memorable songs include:
I Could Have Danced
All Night, I'm Getting Married In The Mornin', On The Street Where
You Live, The Rain In Spain, Wouldn't It Be Loverly?, and I've Grown
Accustomed To Her Face.
