Stoic Theatre will present My Fair Lady, the iconic musical and winner of 6 Tony Awards and 8 Oscars! Based on George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion, about a phonetics professor, Henry Higgins, who transforms a poor, Cockney flower girl, Eliza Doolittle, into a high-society lady by teaching her to speak properly.
Assisted by fellow phonetician Colonel Pickering, their "social experiment" leads to unexpected relationships and personal challenges as Eliza rises above her station. My Fair Lady uses wit and classic Broadway charm to tell a story about transformation, identity, and calling into question societal structures (such as the English class system). Featuring one of musical theatre's greatest scores, including: The Rain in Spain, I Could Have Danced All Night, Get Me To The Church On Time, I've Grown Accustomed To Her Face, and On The Street Where You Live.
