SUMMARY:My Fair Lady
DESCRIPTION:My Fair Lady is a timeless musical that delves into the transformative power of language\, identity\, and social class in early 20th-century London.

The project will take about 20-30 minutes to complete\, so stop by anytime during the workshop\, but please arrive by 4:30 pm. We will have coloring pages for children under 4 years old. Registration is preferred but not required.

SUMMARY:My Fair Lady
DESCRIPTION:My Fair Lady is a timeless musical that delves into the transformative power of language\, identity\, and social class in early 20th-century London. At the heart of the story is Eliza Doolittle\, a spirited flower seller with a thick Cockney accent\, who encounters the esteemed phonetics professor Henry Higgins. Fascinated by her unrefined speech and bold personality\, Higgins makes a bold wager: he will teach Eliza to speak and behave like a proper lady of high society. \nAs Eliza embarks on this challenging journey\, the musical traces their evolving relationship through lessons in speech\, manners\, and self-discovery. Though they come from vastly different worlds\, Higgins and Eliza form an unexpected bond that both challenges and changes them in profound ways.\n—\nBurning Coal Theatre Company is proud to announce its production of My Fair Lady\, directed by Jerome Davis. My Fair Lady will run from April 9th to 26th\, 2026\, at the Murphey School\, located at 224 Polk Street\, Raleigh\, NC 27604.
