Pygmalion, as presented by the class of '64, delighted two nights' audiences. Long hours of rehearsals, costume fittings, and scenery painting went into this production of G.B. Shaw's famous story of a poor Cockney flower girl and a phonetc's professor who teaches her to "speak like a lady."

An ambitious effort for a high school group, the success of Pygmalion was due largely to the determined hard work of the Senior Dramatics Club, sparked by the advisor, Mr. Cafarelli.
