The Cherry Orchard (seen)
Pygmalion (seen, heard and read)

I've edited my list as sometimes I have listened to the play on the radio, hence "heard"

Er, not many!

I've seen

Hamlet
Death of a Salesman
Dancing at Lughnasa
And I have seen "My Fair Lady", does that count for Pygmalion??!!

Shirley wrote: "...And I have seen "My Fair Lady", does that count for Pygmalion??!!"

Sure, I would say so - the dialogue is very little changed!

Death of a Salesman

Only those four...
