WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Signature presents the classic musical My Fair Lady, featuring
book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe. Eric Schaeffer directs.
"Probably the greatest musical of all time" (Daily Telegraph), My Fair Lady is the standard by which all others are measured. Henry Higgins, an opinionated linguistics professor and confirmed bachelor, makes a wager with a colleague that he can transform a cockney flower seller, Eliza Doolittle, into a high society lady. He wins the bet, but doesn't bargain on the profound effect she has on his life. With such musical favorites as "Rain in Spain," "I Could Have Danced All Night," and "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face" it's no wonder everyone, not just Higgins, falls in love with Eliza.

It's tempting to call Signature Theatre's unusual take on the venerable Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe musical My Fair Lady a gamble. After all, Signature artistic director Eric Schaeffer's production has a cast of only 19 (instead of the traditional 44), no extravagant sets -- and, oh yes, the orchestra has been shrunk to just two pianos.
But a gamble involves a choice, and there was none here. My Fair Lady was supposed to be the first show at Signature's new, larger theater, where one imagines it would have been presented as a full-scale spectacle. But construction delays pushed back the venue's opening until January, and Signature's rights to produce the musical extend only throug[...]
