LIVE POLL: Celebrate 110 Years of Eliza Doolittle Portrayals
In honor of
International Eliza Doolittle Day on May 20th, an Eliza Doolittle poll to celebrate this iconic character and some of the great actresses who have portrayed her. Eliza Doolittle is a fictional character and the protagonist in George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion and its 1956 musical adaptation, My Fair Lady. The character first debuted on stage 110 years ago, when Pygmalion premiered in German at the Hofburg Theatre in Vienna on 16 October 1913. Its English-language premiere took place six months later at His Majesty's Theatre in the West End in London on April 11, 1914. So, in celebration of the assorted incarnations Eliza Doolittle has seen over 110 years:
Which of these cinematic, television, or theatrical actresses who have portrayed Eliza Doolittle* over the past 110 years is the one you would most like to see again or for the first time as Eliza? *excludes derivative adaptations or adaptations when the character's name is not retained

@urbanemovies ,
My Favorite:
Julie Andrews as Eliza Doolittle in the 1956 stage musical production of My Fair Lady on Broadway (New York), in the West End (London)
I would loved to have seen Julie Andrews' performance on stage. Sadly, I was too young at the time of her performances. I have a vinyl LP recording of West End (London) performance.
