Photo Flash: Everett, Tointon in Rehearsal for West End's PYGMALION!

The show is being directed by director Philip Prose, who also took part in the Chichester production. PYGMALION will play the Garrick Theatre, May 12 through September 3.

Pygmalion is by Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw. Professor of phonetics Henry Higgins makes a bet that he can train a bedraggled Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, to pass for a duchess at an ambassador's gArden Party by teaching her to assume a veneer of gentility, the most important element of which, he believes, is impeccable speech. The play is a sharp lampoon of the rigid British class system of the day and a comment on women's independence, packaged as a romantic comedy.

In 1956 it was adapted into Broadway musical My Fair Lady, by Lerner and Loewe. The original production starred Rex Harrison as Higgins and Julie Andrews as Eliza.
