One way to identify a Shavian play is to determine if it is written by Shaw and if it contains classic Shavian elements such wit, sharp dialogue, fabulously layered characters and references to the classics. In addition, he is famous for â??comedies of mannersâ??. With the story about a wager made by an upper class Svengali that he can remake a low class women into â??a great Lady", 'Pygmalionâ?? is classic Shavian.
