⭐ MY FAIR LADY – NEW REVIVAL ANNOUNCED FOR CURVE THEATRE LEICESTER – CHRISTMAS 2024 ⭐
Curve Theatre Leicester will stage a brand-new Made at Curve production of Lerner and Loewe’s MY FAIR LADY, it has been announced.
It’s set to be a ‘loverly’ Christmas in Leicester this year as Curve announces plans to stage a new Made at Curve production of Lerner and Loewe’s classic musical, MY FAIR LADY.
MY FAIR LADY follows Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower seller from Covent Garden, who by chance meets phonetics professor Henry Higgins. With the help of his pal Colonel Pickering, Higgins sets out to support Eliza’s ambition to learn how to speak like a lady of high society, so she can fulfil her ambition of opening her own flower shop. Along the way, Higgins learns a few lessons of his own, as Eliza’s free spirit, defiance and zest for life bring magic and joy into the lives of everyone who encounters her.
A musical adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s 1913 play Pygmalion, MY FAIR LADY was first performed on Broadway in 1956 starring Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews, followed by an Oscar-winning 1964 film adaptation starring Harrison and Audrey Hepburn.
Filled with a roster of iconic characters, comedy, romance and some of the greatest songs ever imagined for the musical stage, including ‘The Rain in Spain’, ‘Wouldn’t It Be Loverly’ and ‘I Could Have Danced All Night’.
The revival will be directed by Curve’s Artistic Director Nikolai Foster.
This Made at Curve production of MY FAIR LADY is sponsored by De Montfort University (DMU), with the show’s orchestra sponsored by music licensing company PPL.
MY FAIR LADY will play Curve Theatre Leicester, running from 23rd November 2024 – 4th January 2025.
LOVERLY! ! !
