“...each character is played to perfection… Grant and O’Hare revel in their roles as Higgins and Doolittle.” Chicago Stage Standard

“...this My Fair Lady gives us a pair that could not easily be matched… every note full and magnificent… altogether opulent.” PerformInk

“Lisa O’Hare is absolutely charming…” Dean Richards, WGN

“Bryce Pinkham was a treat to hear…” Chicago Theater and Arts

“...a stunning success and high note on which to end a remarkable season.” Stage and Cinema

“Lavishly designed and staged…eye-popping costumes.” – Chicago Sun-Times
