"The ending may seem like such a change, but at least it follows Shaw's stated intention. But this kind of cut would probably weaken the character and story in ways beyond the obvious."
The ending of the LCT production definitely follows Shaw's stated intention re PYGMALION, but it goes directly against the expressly stated intention of Alan Jay Lerner in his adaptation of PYGMALION into the musical MY FAIR LADY. So I'm not sure where that leaves us. |
