The original 1956 Broadway production starring Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews won six Tony Awards including Best Musical and was hailed by The New York Times as “one of the best musicals of the century”. The film adaptation starring Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison continues to be one of the most cherished musical films of all time.

My Fair Lady is booking from 7 May 2022 until 27 August 2022 at the London Coliseum.
