Pygmalion

The Old Vic announces that Bertie Carvel (The 47th, The Crown) and Patsy Ferran (A Streetcar Named Desire, Camp Siegfried) will star in Pygmalion, a play by George Bernard Shaw, directed by Richard Jones (Endgame, Katya Kabanova). The Olivier Award-winning pair return to The Old Vic in this much-loved classic, with Bertie Carvel as the eccentric egotistical linguist Professor Henry Higgins and Patsy Ferran as Eliza Doolittle, the indomitable Covent Garden flower girl with grander aspirations. Pygmalion will play at The Old Vic from 06 September – 28 October with a press performance on Tuesday 19 September. Pygmalion will be the first show of The Old Vic’s 2023-2024 season.
