Description

No trip to Sydney is complete without a visit to the Sydney Opera House, the city’s most famous building. And what better to do when visiting the Sydney Opera House than to spend a pleasant evening inside enjoying a musical performance. Directed by Julie Andrews, the 2016 revival opened to huge acclaim. Now a decade on it makes a triumphant homecoming with Karen Johnson Mortimer at the helm. When Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe premiered their brilliant adaptation of George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion in 1956, it became an instant classic — hailed as “the perfect musical” and winning six Tony Awards. A 20-year-old Julie Andrews was catapulted to superstardom when she originated the role of Eliza Doolittle — an irrepressible Cockney flower girl who transforms into a lady of society. The man attempting to remake her? The appealingly arrogant phoneticist Henry Higgins, who may just be the one transformed. A heartwarming story of transformation and identity, My Fair Lady brims with razor sharp wit, unforgettable characters, and a glorious score including ‘Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?’, ‘I Could Have Danced All Night’ and ‘Get Me to the Church on Time’. Don’t miss this rare chance to see a sparkling gem of theatrical history hailed by The New York Times as “one of the best musicals of the century”.
