McDaniel College Theatre Arts students perform in George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion," directed by Elizabeth van den Berg, chair of the Theatre Arts department at McDaniel. Based on classical myth, this legendary comedy of manners tells the story of wily Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle and her transformation into a "proper lady" at the hands of snobbish speech professor Henry Higgins. "Pygmalion" was the basis of the acclaimed stage and movie musical "My Fair Lady."
