Victims of Middle Class Morality
May 05, 2005

Pros: While the movie and My Fair Lady are great, the pure story is best.

Cons: This play is masterfully crafted and perfect, it didn't need to be altered.

Bottom Line: Shaw knew what he was doing when he wrote this. It's the pure, and best, version of the story. My Fair Lady's great, but make sure you read this too.
