Big League Productions Inc. presents a sparkling new production of the musical by which all others are measured. Based on Shaw's play and Pascal's movie "Pygmalion," with book music and lyrics by Lerner and Loewe, MY FAIR LADY is triumphant. With 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, it's no wonder everyone - not just Henry Higgins - falls in love with Eliza Doolittle. The show's 1956 Broadway production was a smash hit, setting a new record for the longest run of any major theatre production in history. It was followed by a hit London production, a popular film version starring Audrey Hepburn - which won eight Academy Awards, and numerous revivals.
It has been called "the perfect musical".

Los Angeles, CA –THE MOODY BLUES will launch their 32-city 2012 U.S. tour titled “The Moody Blues: The Voyage Continues – Highway 45”,in conjunction with the 45th Anniversary of their landmark album DAYS OF FUTURE PASSED.
The band, whose legacy spans four decades of hit-making and sell-out tours, will continue to entertain audiences with their timeless music. Says the New York Post of their live show: ”The rockers played a set that reminded the sold-out Music Hall why (The Moody Blues are) one of the most important rock acts to ever come out of the U.K…the trio looked remarkably sound and sounded untouched by time…” Echoes USA Weekend: “Fans were on their feet applauding great music from a great rock n’ roll band with staying power beyond anybody’s ‘wildest dreams.’” Says the St. Louis Post Dispatch: “The Moodies depend on nostalgic memories of their fans' youth, but they also know that in the present, these songs can still move the listener.”
