“The difference between a Lady and flower girl isn’t how she behaves, but how she is treated”
Eliza Doolittle is a Cockney flower girl with big dreams.
Henry Higgins is a brash Professor of Speech with a big ego.
When a chance encounter sparks a daring bet, Eliza is catapulted from the rainy streets of Covent Garden to the top of Edwardian High Society. Can she pass for a Duchess or will the experiment expose more than just her accent?
Following their acclaimed national tour of The Importance of Being Earnest, HangFire Theatre return with a sparkling new adaptation of Bernard Shaw’s hilarious and heartfelt satire on identity and class which inspired the hit musical My Fair Lady.
Will you miss your chance to experience this classic rags to riches story?
“Not bloody likely!”
