UPPER SCHOOL MUSICAL PRODUCTION

GET YOUR TICKETS now for MY FAIR LADY, an Upper School musical production starring Lydia Flock, Arun Marsten, Aaron Race and Grant Fergusson. It is based on a play by George Bernard Shaw and is about a misogynistic and snobbish phonetics professor who agrees to a wager that he can take a poor flower girl and make her presentable in high society. Don't miss one of Broadway's most popular shows. It's reserved seating, so everyone needs a ticket, but free for faculty, staff and students and tickets available in the Fine Arts Office. Performances are February 16-18 at 7pm in the Hendrix-Chenault Theater.
