REVIEWS
"Footlights have delivered the beating heart of My Fair Lady/Pygmalion...They have spun a limited budget into palpable onstage gold. They have moved and captivated their audience’s eyes and hearts for the better. They are a credit to Wellington theatre. I could have stayed all night."
- Dave Smith, Theatreview
"Mike Bryant as Colonel Pickering is flawless and funny. He plays the perfect Pickering with all the pomp and fatherly affection needed."
- Tommy Livingston, Stuff
