My Fair Lady

Based on George Bernard Shaw’s play Pygmalion, the story of the flower girl Eliza Doolittle’s transformation under the tutelage of Henry Higgins is a familiar story. In this MGR production Kimberly Doreen Burns and Will Erat made Lerner and Loewe proud.

The standards - Wouldn’t It Be Loverly; I Could Have Danced All Night; The Rain in Spain; On the Street Where You Live - were delivered with exceptional voice.

Nevertheless Gary Marachek stole the show with his masterful characterization as Eliza’s father Alfred P. Doolittle.

The play may have gone a little too long for those seniors in attendance. But My Fair Lady is still good-time theatre.
