My Fair Lady Reviews

MY SPECTACULAR LADY IN MY FAIR LADY

Have been singing the score myself for 40 years, and Shereen Ahmed's singing was exquisite. Took my granddaughter, age 12 and my daughter to this production, and it was delightful! The only drawback was at the end ~ we were left hanging as Eliza just walks off the stage...and Henry did not follow; just stayed on stage. All three of us just felt like...what????!!! They need to rewrite that ending! The scenery, portrayals and musicianship were all well done, and we were delighted to have attended. They received a standing ovation and well deserved it!

FLAWLESS FIRST ACT, QUESTIONABLE SECOND

First saw this show in London in 1958. Have seen many different productions since. Brought my granddaughter to see this production which she loved. The first act was perfection. Then we got into the second act and the utterly gratuitous drag wedding scene during what should be a rollicking Get me to the Church on time struck a sour note.Things got better and Higgins I’ve grown accustomed to her face was sheer perfection. But then the ending, Eliza appears and then walks off. Is she a figment if Higgins imagination? That was the explanation of several of the audiences younger set. I was totally confused.Very unsatisfactory ending for me but still a spectacular show!.

BRAVO

The play was outstanding, my wife and I enjoyed our evening. Cast, orchestra and stage scenery BRAVO! I would enjoy watching your play again.

INCREDIBLE

I feel so bad for everyone who can’t understand the ending. It was so powerful.

ABSOLUTELY EXCELLENT LEAD ACTOR

This show was perfect for a first night back at the theater since the start of covid. The set design was quite nice, the actors dynamic (none of their performances disappointed) and the singing lovely. In particular, the actor playing the lead of Eliza Doolittle was quite an electric actress, not to mention her absolutely stunning voice! She really made the production something special

MY FAIR LADY

I wonder if those readers who were disappointed in the ending of "My Fair Lady," which I saw in San Francisco on 27 November, have ever read George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion," on which the musical is based. Talk about ambiguity! The Broadway and Hollywood versions most certainly did *not* work for Shaw. Also, it seems that those who felt that the local touches (drag queen bride, Ballets Trocadero dancers) in "Get Me to the Church On Time" were somehow unworthy of Doolittle's refined character :-)

GREAT PLAY. SAD ENDING

Loved all of it. Great singing. Dancing. Scenes. Amazing. Being 63, I have seen the movie and the play. I love a good love story. And I knew they were supposed to end up together. It’s such a classic. So to change it… made me sad. I just wanted a happy ending.
