Founder and Artistic Director Stephen Stearns brightens NEYT's spring season with the musical story of Henry Higgins and Eliza Dolittle, adapted from George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion", with lyrics & music by Alan Jay Lerner & Frederick Loewe. Higgins makes a bet that he can train a bedraggled Cockney flower girl, Eliza, to pass for a duchess at an ambassador’s garden party by teaching her impeccable speech. The bet becomes more than a game as the two spend more and more time together.
