Golden Globe® winner Claire Danes (The Hours, Baz Lurmann's Romeo + Juliet) makes her Broadway debut as Eliza Doolittle, alongside Tony Award® winner Jefferson Mays (I Am My Own Wife, Journey's End) as the inimitable Henry Higgins.

When a pompous phonetics expert bets that he can teach a Cockney flower girl to act and speak like a lady, he gets more than he bargained for: Eliza Doolittle provokes his interest, his anger, and ultimately, his passion. As her lessons progress, it becomes obvious that it is Henry who has the most to learn about bad behavior.
