My Fair Lady

Last chance to see the magnificent My Fair Lady, now playing until 14 October, under the direction of Julie Andrews.
Opera Australia and John Frost take pride in presenting the beloved story of Eliza Doolittle and Henry Higgins to a new generation of theatre audiences.
Director Julie Andrews has assembled a cast of theatre royalty for this 60th anniversary production including Downton Abbey’s Charles Edwards, Anna O’Byrne, Reg Livermore, Robyn Nevin, Joel Parnis, Tony Llewellyn-Jones and Deidre Rubenstein.
My Fair Lady is an endearing tale that charms audiences with its warmth and vivid characters. The clash of cultures sparks some of musical theatre’s most witty dialogue and jubilant songs including Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?, On The Street Where You Live, I Could Have Danced All Night and Get Me to the Church on Time.
Don’t miss the musical hailed by The Australian as ‘Miraculous. Ridiculously Beautiful’, about the Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle and the appealingly arrogant phoneticist, Henry Higgins.
- Duration: Approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes (including one 20 minute interval)
- Age Recommendation: Suitable for 6+

Frequently Asked Questions
View all FAQsWhat time do I need to arrive before a show?
We recommend that you arrive at least 15-30 minutes before the performance starts – or earlier if you would like to enjoy a drink in one of the theatre’s licensed bars.
What if I'm late and the performance has started?
Live theatre has a ‘lock-out’ policy; a period after the curtain goes up when late-comers are not permitted to enter the auditorium. Lock-out periods are set by the production and vary from show to show. Patrons arriving late will be admitted when there’s a suitable break in the performance.
