At the heart of the story lies Professor Henry Higgins, a brilliant but arrogant phonetician who wagers that he can transform Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, into a refined lady. Driven by his scientific obsession, Higgins embarks on a rigorous experiment, subjecting Eliza to grueling lessons in language and etiquette.

As Eliza's speech and manners undergo a remarkable transformation, so too does her self-perception and aspirations. The clash between her newfound elegance and her humble origins creates a poignant tension that drives the narrative forward. Shaw deftly explores the complexities of social class and the arbitrary nature of societal norms.

Eliza's Journey of Transformation

Shaw's portrayal of Eliza Doolittle is both sympathetic and incisive. She is a vibrant, assertive woman who refuses to be defined solely by her social status. Her transformation is not merely superficial; it extends to her very core, as she gains confidence, dignity, and a newfound appreciation for beauty and culture.

Higgins, initially driven by intellectual curiosity, gradually finds himself drawn to Eliza's genuine spirit and resilience. Despite their vastly different backgrounds, an unexpected connection begins to develop between them, challenging societal expectations and exploring the boundaries of human relationships.
