CURVE has revealed that Molly Lynch (The Last Five Years, Southwark Playhouse/West End) will play the role of Eliza Doolittle in the upcoming Made at Curve production of Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe’s classic musical, My Fair Lady.

Directed by Curve’s Artistic Director Nikolai Foster, My Fair Lady will run in Leicester from 23 November 2024 to 4 January 2025.

Molly Lynch returns to Curve following her acclaimed performance as Betty Schaefer in Curve’s production of Sunset Boulevard (2017 UK and international tour and 2020 streamed productions).

Full casting for the musical will be announced in due course.

The Made at Curve production of My Fair Lady will be choreographed by Joanna Goodwin, with musical supervision by George Dyer, set and costume design by Michael Taylor, lighting by Mark Henderson, sound by Adam Fisher, and casting by Olivia Laydon for Jill Green Casting.

Curve’s Chief Executive Chris Stafford and Artistic Director Nikolai Foster said: “A glittering crew of eccentric characters and some of the most wonderful songs ever written for the stage make My Fair Lady one of the very best musical comedies of all time. And at the heart of this glorious show is Eliza Doolittle, surely one of the most dazzling characters ever to have leapt from the imagination of a writer. In Molly Lynch we have an Eliza with a magnificent and mighty voice to inhabit these great songs afresh, a flair and wit to offer new insights into this incredible character and the comic brio to illuminate our My Fair Lady in the 21st century. We are thrilled Molly is returning to Curve and cannot wait for our festive audiences to delight in her intoxicating Eliza, which will guarantee we all dance all night this Christmastime.”
