Boasting a score that contains such now-classic songs as “I Could Have Danced All Night,” “Get Me
to the Church on Time,” “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly,” “On the Street Where You Live,” “The Rain in
Spain,” and “I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face,” MY FAIR LADY was hailed by The New York
Times as “one of the best musicals of the century,” by the Christian Science Monitor as “a work of theatre
magic,” and by the NY Herald Tribune as “a miraculous musical.”

Michael Yeargan, costumes by Catherine Zuber, lighting by Donald Holder, and sound by Marc Salzberg.
