My Fair Lady is the type of musical that barely needs an introduction, having often been called a ‘perfect musical’! Based on George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion, the show made its Broadway debut in 1956, and set a record for longest run up until that time. The revival opened on April 19, 2018 at the Vivian Beaumont Theatre, starring Lauren Ambrose, and directed by Bartlett Sher. With 10 Tony Award nominations, this is a must-watch show!
The Story of My Fair Lady
Follow the story of Cockney flowerseller Eliza Doolittle, who takes linguistics lessons from phoneticist and Professor Henry Higgins in order to transform into a ‘proper lady’. Not only does the story transcend societal conventions and gender, but also offers insight into the world of the working class, and that of the educated. Watch to uncover the various nuances of My Fair Lady, and to find out the fate of the lovable and determined Eliza Doolittle!
