My Fair Lady: Lawson Taitte review for Dallas Morning News

All in all, My Fair Lady just doesn’t get any better than this

My Fair Lady proves its excellence at Lyric Stage in Irving… My Fair Lady is the greatest of all operettas. You’ll never see better proof than the version currently at Lyric Stage…

Over the last three years, Lyric Stage has been giving the top musicals of this period the deluxe treatment. No one else anywhere is performing this kind of show with a full orchestra today. In Irving, however, Jay Dias’ pit band numbers 38 – more than the size of the original Broadway forces. Hearing the score this way makes all the difference…

All in all, My Fair Lady just doesn’t get any better than this.

My Fair Lady: Kris Noteboom review for TheaterJones

The Lady is a Champ

Lyric Stage’s production of My Fair Lady sets the new standard for revivals of classics… Lyric’s production is a breath of fresh air. Lyric’s staging of this classic is a heartfelt effort illuminated by excellent design and dedicated performances…

Featuring more musicians than the original Broadway production, the orchestra adds a richness and texture to the proceedings that cannot be matched in other productions… Lyric Stage’s production of the ultimate classic, My Fair Lady, is a definite must-see.
