PROGRAM NOTE

After tryouts in New Haven and Philadelphia, My Fair Lady, starring Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews, opened on Broadway at the Mark Hellinger Theatre on March 15, 1956. Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe wrote the book and the score, adapted from George Bernard Shaw’s famous play and Gabriel Pascal’s motion picture Pygmalion. The original production, one of the most distinguished in the history of the musical theater, was directed by Moss Hart. When My Fair Lady closed on September 29, 1962, it had played 2,717 performances, more than any other musical up to that time.
