Runs Nov. 30- Dec. 5, 2021 From "San Diego Weekend Arts Events" (KPBS): Broadway San Diego's production of Lerner and Loewe's "My Fair Lady" just opened on Tuesday, with shows through Sunday evening. It's the story of Eliza Doolittle and her exceptional Cockney accent, plus the linguistic professor ('Enry 'Iggins) who takes her under his wing. Expect luxurious, intricate sets and costumes, and plenty of recognizable quips ("Women are irrational, that's all there is to that!") and tunes like "I Could Have Danced All Night." —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS From the organizer: From Lincoln Center Theater that brought you The King & I and South Pacific, comes “a sumptuous new production of the most perfect musical of all time” (Entertainment Weekly), Lerner & Loewe’s MY FAIR LADY. Director Bartlett Sher’s glowing production is “thrilling, glorious and better than it ever was” (New York Times). “Every so often a revival comes along that reminds you how indispensable great theater can be” (NY1). Boasting such classic songs as “I Could Have Danced All Night,” “The Rain in Spain,” “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly” and “On the Street Where You Live,” MY FAIR LADY tells the story of Eliza Doolittle, a young Cockney flower seller, and Henry Higgins, a linguistics professor who is determined to transform her into his idea of a “proper lady.” But who is really being transformed?
