“Here is the author’s original, not the version tweaked by the play’s first London director for Eliza to marry Professor Higgins, which so enraged Shaw...As Eliza, Lucy Whybrow nips our lacrymal ducts with some real pathos...This Pygmalion heralds a series to be eagerly anticipated.”
The Independent ...
“Anton Lesser is a true audio star... Lesser performs brilliantly as Professor Higgins in Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion , one of the first of a new series of plays specially produced for audio by Naxos and Oneword Radio, the digital audiostation."
AudioFile Magazine...
“Naxos’s production wisely incorporates a narrator who sets the scene with Shaw’s own stage directions, as he expanded them for publication. Under John Tydeman’s confident direction, the excellent cast fully realizes the intelligent humor and persuasive characterizations of the text [and] provides a splendidly satisfying rendition.”
