My Fair Lady

Following the performance run of My Fair Lady the Primary and Form I music students were asked to write a review and the below composition by David Lowsley is a good example of the standard submitted.

Review of My Fair Lady
by David Lowsley

I went to see My Fair Lady on Saturday with my Dad. I really enjoyed it. The singing was really good. The songs I liked best were ‘I have often walked down this street before’ and ‘Wouldn’t it be lovely’.
The characters I liked were played by Poppy Vernon, Richi Manuel, Mark Russell and Aidan Chisolm.
The dancing was really good. The costumes were excellent. The backdrops were really amazing too.
The audience seemed to really enjoy the play also as there was a lot of clapping and cheering at the end.
All my friends on the show acted very well. All their hard work and effort really paid off.
My Fair Lady is based on a George Bernard Shaw play based on Pygmalion and was adapted by Lerner and Lowe.
I loved the character of Eliza Doolittle and also Henry Higgins. I think it is a great story. I really like the last scene.
Overall I was very impressed by the show and really enjoyed it.
