The tea party is being presented by Lee University’s Theatre.
All women are invited to dress up and enjoy a tea party hosted by “My Fair Lady” leading lady Eliza Doolittle.
Assorted tea, coffee, sandwiches and snacks will be served. Immediately following the tea, attendees will have the opportunity to enjoy reserved seating for the 2 p.m. performance of “My Fair Lady,” also presented by Lee’s Theatre in collaboration with Lee’s School of Music.
The story of “My Fair Lady” involves a chance meeting between two noted British linguists, Prof. Henry Higgins and Col. Hugh Pickering, which leads to a wager to test Higgins’ skills.
After they hear a Cockney flower girl caterwaul in the street, Higgins proposes to transform the girl, Eliza Doolittle, into a refined Victorian lady with an aristocratic accent. After some hesitation Eliza agrees to become their test case.
Tickets for “Tea with My Fair Lady” include admission into the performance and are $20 for adults, $15 for senior adults and children 12 and under.
