This season we focus on character development and analysis of the female protagonists in Golden Age Musicals. We travel to London this week in Lerner and Loewe's "My Fair Lady." Join us for discussions about the development of the musical from the original myth, to the George Bernard Shaw play, to Shaw screenplay, to Broadway, and then Hollywood. Eliza Doolittle has fascinated audiences with her transformation for over a century and we analyze how her story morphed and impacted audiences then and now.
