Hit West End musical My Fair Lady is making an eagerly-awaited return to Manchester with a new tour. The lavish new production has kicked off in Dublin this week, and will head to Manchester's Palace Theatre in May 2023.
The show follows the exploits of Cockney flower girl Eliza Dolittle, played by Charlotte Kennedy, and will see EastEnders icon Adam Woodyatt in one of the leading roles as Eliza's dustman dad Alfred P Doolittle. It has been some years since the musical was last performed here in Manchester, making it an eagerly-awaited return for theatre fans.
The musical tells the story of Eliza who is taken under the wing of Henry Higgins (Michael D. Xavier), a linguistics professor who is determined to transform her into his idea of a “proper lady”. But as the story unfolds the audiences is invited to wonder who is really being transformed?
