Celebrating 70 years in 2026!

Romance returns as My Fair Lady graces the stage in spring 2026, celebrating 70 years since the show's Broadway debut! An enchanting tale of rags to riches that includes romance, elocution lessons, and an unforgettable day at the races that includes some of musical theatre's most classic standards ('I could have danced all night' and 'Wouldn't it be Loverly' to name a few), don't miss Eliza Dolittle's transformation - this one will sell like hot cakes - or should that be hot flowers?

Regarded as one of the greatest musicals of all time, this jubilant musical originally premiered on Broadway in 1956, with Julie Andrews in the role of Eliza, and won six Tony Awards, and was subsequently adapted for the silver screen, with the cast led by Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison.

What is the story?

For Professor Henry Higgins, a person's voice is of the utmost importance. A student of phonetics, he holds the opinion that with the right accent and tone of speech, anything is achievable. To prove his point, he wagers a friend that he can teach cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle to speak 'properly', and then present her as an upper-class lady at a high society ball. So the pair's lessons begin, but little does Henry Higgins know, that project Eliza Dolittle is going to change his life forever.

Did you know?

While Julie Andrews won huge acclaim for her Eliza on Broadway, she was never in contention to reprise the role on film. Audrey Hepburn was one of Hollywood's brightest stars, and as producer Jack Warner wrote in his autobiography, "In my business, I have to know who brings people and their money to a movie theatre box office." Audrey Hepburn's singing was then famously dubbed in the final cut of the movie.
