About this event

What if My Fair Lady was set in Belfast... and the language at the centre of the story was Irish? Pygmalion 26 brings George Bernard Shaw's classic comedy into Belfast 2026...

in a new Irish-language translation that puts a distinctly contemporary spin on one of theatre's most famous stories about class, language and identity. Just as Eliza Doolittle's accent determines how the world sees her in Pygmalion (and its much-loved musical adaptation My Fair Lady), Pygmalion 26 asks: who gets to claim Irish as their own?
