Pygmalion is an idealistic sculptor who creates Galatea, his statue of a perfect woman.\u00a0 At Venus\u2019 bidding, the seven Muses cause the creator to fall in love with his creation. The Muse of Poetry falls in love with Pygmalion and begs the Goddess of Love to allow her to appear to him and steer his passion away from the lifeless statue.\u00a0 Venus curses the Muse for her temerity and casts the spirit Muse into the statue of Galatea. When the other Muses beg for mercy for their sister, Venus permits them to lead the pair on a quest that will bring Galatea to life, let Poetry experience humanity, and render Pygmalion capable of selfless love.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>PLAY DETAILS<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>8f 1m<\/li>\n<li>90 minute<\/li>\n<li>1 fluid location from Pygmalion&#8217;s workshop<\/li>\n<li>Order #3121<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Available for ALL producing groups SOON.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2><strong>PERUSAL MATERIALS<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Perusal Pages File<\/strong> Available below.
