Ladies Night Out took another direction this year by moving away from a meal to a play and one where no work had to be done! St. Peter’s visited the Riverside Theatre in Fredericksburg on Sunday afternoon April 3 for lunch and the matinee performance of "My Fair Lady." We thank Jim Heimbach for booking 32 reservations
Summary from the Riverside
"My Fair Lady the musical version of George Bernard Shaw’s play Pygmalion, tells the familiar story of Eliza Doolittle, a Covent Garden flower peddler who agrees to take speech lessons from self-absorbed phonetician Henry Higgins in order to fulfill her life’s dream of working in a flower shop. However, Eliza succeeds so well that she outgrows her lowly social status and, at the same time, manages to become a truly indispensable part of Higgins’ bachelor life.
"Featuring many of Lerner and Loewe’s most sparkling songs, including Wouldn’t It Be Loverly?, With a Little Bit of Luck, The Rain in Spain, I Could Have Danced All Night, On the Street Where You Live, Get Me to the Church on Time, and I’ve Grown Accustomed to Her Face."
