What to Focus On

  • Mrs. Higgins’s at-home day is the social setting of the act.
  • The action takes place in the afternoon, between four and five.
  • The room suggests culture, taste, and order.
  • Higgins arrives without invitation and ignores social courtesy.
  • The bet with Pickering is the driving force of the experiment.
  • Eliza is being trained to pass as a duchess.
  • Mrs. and Miss Eynsford Hill are mother and daughter from Covent Garden.
  • Freddy is also from Covent Garden and appears again here.
  • Higgins’s manner is rude and suspicious.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Eliza is already fully transformed into a duchess in Act Three.

The weather speech is random comic nonsense, not trained small talk.

Clara understands the joke and intentionally uses 'new small talk' as satire.

Memory Tips

Higgins arrives uninvited on his mother's at-home day

Small talk versus large talk
