My Fair Lady

*Please note: this performance is currently waitlist only.

When Professor Henry Higgins takes on the ambitious task of molding flower seller Eliza Doolittle into his vision of refinement, she is swept into a world brimming with possibility and unexpected discoveries. Widely considered one of the greatest musicals of all time, My Fair Lady is guaranteed to capture hearts with its wit and charm, even as it reveals that asking someone to change the way they speak is asking them to surrender a piece of who they are.  

At the heart of Lerner and Loewe’s sparkling satire lies a powerful exploration of transformation: what it means to change, and what is lost when one’s voice is reshaped to fit someone else’s ideal. This thought-provoking, endlessly entertaining classic is a perfect theatrical gift for all ages, carried along on a timeless score featuring such songs as “I Could Have Danced All Night” and “On the Street Where You Live.” 

Note: Due to limited ticket numbers, teachers and students can register for the 11/11 preview performance, but the 11/21 performance is reserved for students and family members only.
