My Fair Lady coming to Mastercard Theatres this February

The rain in Spain would fall in Singapore over the next few weeks.  Based on George Bernard Shaw’s 1912 play Pygmalion, the musical My Fair Lady will transport audiences to Edwardian London.  It follows the relationship between Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, and the snobbish and misogynistic Professor Henry Higgins, a phoneticist, who wagers that he can turn Eliza into a “proper lady’ in three months’ time.  When the show first opened on Broadway in 1956, starring Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews, critics described it a “legendary” and “one of the greatest musicals of the century.” My Fair Lady went on to win six TONY Awards, and, in 1961, became the longest-running production in Broadway history at that time.

The musical features book and lyrics by Alan Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe, and includes the classic songs “The Rain In Spain,” Wouldn’t It Be Loverly” and “Get Me To The Church On Time.” Often called “the perfect musical,” if you have seen the movie version before, it is time to catch the stage version.  This production from the US would feature Aurora Florence as Eliza Doolittle; Chris Carsten as Henry Higgins; Daniel Cardenes as Freddy Eynsford-Hill; Ricard Springle as Colonel Pickering; and Arthur Wise as Alfred P. Doolittle.
