About this event

Lerner and Loewe’s My Fair Lady is now playing at the Sydney Opera House to celebrate 70 years since its glorious Broadway debut.

Starring Nathaniel Parker (Inspector Lynley Mysteries) as Professor Henry Higgins and Claire Lyon as Eliza Doolittle, with returning cast members Reg Livermore, Robyn Nevin and Tony Llewellyn-Jones, plus Freddy Hellier in his mainstage debut and the much-loved Anne Wood.

This lavish recreation is based on the 2016 Australian production directed by Julie Andrews, who was catapulted into stardom when she originated the role of Eliza Doolittle, an irrepressible Cockney flower girl who transforms into a lady of society.

A heartwarming story of identity and change, My Fair Lady brims with razor sharp wit, unforgettable characters, and a stunning score including ‘Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?’, ‘I Could Have Danced All Night’ and ‘Get Me to the Church on Time’.

From its groundbreaking Broadway debut to the iconic Oscar‑winning film, My Fair Lady remains one of the world’s most enduring and loved musical treasures.

Don’t miss your chance to see “one of the best musicals of the century” according to The New York Times.
