"...On the twentieth of May, I proclaim Liza Doolittle Day!"

We hope you will join us in celebrating one of our favorite days of the year...Eliza Doolittle Day! The special day is inspired by a lyric from "Just You Wait" in Lerner and Loewe's classic My Fair Lady where the plucky flower seller Eliza Doolittle takes on the patronizing Henry Higgins. Be sure to follow and tag @mtishows on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter with photos from your production of My Fair Lady using the #ElizaDoolittleDay hashtag!

Coming Soon: Upgraded Orchestrations
In honor of the special day, we are delighted to share some loverly updates! First, we've been busy putting the final touches on completely restoring the Original Broadway Orchestrations, upgraded to digital perfection. These upgraded orchestrations feature all the music we know and love, now digitally reformatted, typeset, cleaned, and ready to be used on your next production of My Fair Lady. We expect these upgraded orchestrations to be ready for our materials in the coming weeks! Take a peek below:

Coming Soon: My Fair Lady School Edition
We are also excited to share that we will soon be welcoming My Fair Lady as a new addition to our diverse School Edition collection. Created specifically for high school stages, My Fair Lady School Edition will come complete with accompaniment and guide vocal tracks, a comprehensive director's guide (offering notes on everything from staging and costumes to music, choreography, and lighting) and informative study guides for your cast and crew. Staging this classic musical in your school has never been easier! The expected release for My Fair Lady School Edition is Summer 2020 and will be featured at this year's International Thespians Festival presented by New Albany High School in New Albany, Indiana.
