My Fair Lady - Church Hill Theatre Production

After months of planning and discussion, Church Hill Theatre proudly announces its 2024 season of outstanding plays. As always, the offerings will include old favorites, edgy new dramas, and a family-friendly musical. With a renovated building, comfortable new seating and improved sound and lighting equipment, CHT will offer audiences a truly professional theater experience.

My Fair Lady, by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Lowe, to be presented June 7 through 23, is a musical adapted from the book Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw. It is a satire about class distinctions in England during the early 20th century. It centers around a cockney flower girl, Eliza Dolittle, who is taken in by linguist Henry Higgins, who bets his friend, Colonel Pickering that he can improve her speech and manners sufficiently to pass her off as a duchess. This musical has delighted audiences since it opened on Broadway in 1956.
