Lerner and Loewe's "My Fair Lady" is one of those enduring classics that when done correctly can amount to a magical evening.

Without those elements, really, why bother? Well lucky for us director Brian Yorkey and the folks at Village Theatre seem to have gotten ahold of my shopping list and confidently checked off each item as their current production of the classic amounts in some ways to one of the best I've seen.
