It's the musical by which all others are measured.

The memorable score features such favorites as "The Rain in Spain," "I Could Have Danced All Night" and "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face."

The venue was stunning. An intimate theater with absolute state of the art audio and lights. The staff was most caring. All of the casts' costumes were stunning. Eliza's gown for the ball was almost identical to the film version. Prof. Higgins and Doolittle's performances were perfect by any standard. The dancing chorus scenes were impressive considering the small stage, well choreographed and rehearsed. It was a pleasant and affordable afternoon event. I look forward to more.

My Fair Lady is a wonderful show and the performers at the Simi Valley Cultural Arts Center did a good job.

The top actors, in my opinion, were Professor Higgins (close your eyes and he could have been Rex Harrison), the lady who played his mother (supurb), Eliza Doolittle (a voice with charm and quality), Colonel Pickering (elegant), and Alfred P. Doolittle (a great character with lots of energy).

I would have liked the orchestra (that plays so beautifully) play a little softer as not to drown out the voices of the singers.

Also, I would have liked to have heard some of the actors enunciate their lines more clearly, in particular, Alfred Doolittle.

All in all, the show was delightful remembering that it is a community theatre.

Another Great play at this great little theatre. The actors were solid as usual with the play being entertaining enough to keep everyone involved. Parking is always free which is hard to find these days. Well worth the price of admission thanks goldstar.
