Who doesn’t like “My Fair Lady?” This wonderful musical has truly stood the test of
time. Last weekend I saw it performed at the James Lee Community Center Theatre
in Falls Church, produced by Zemfira
Stage. It was a delightful production with three outstanding leads: Jim
Mitchell as Henry Higgins, Stacy Crickmer as Eliza Doolittle and Terry Mason as
Colonel Pickering. Plus a great ensemble of singers and dancers and an
enthusiastic band under the direction of Annette Fakoury. Jim Mitchell is one of those actors whose
comfortable stage presence draws you into every role he plays. Unfortunately,
the show concluded last weekend. But not
to worry, Zemfira will be back in January 2016 with “August: Osage
County.” Zina Bleck is the founding producer and director and she always puts
forth quality shows. For more information, call 703-615-6626 or email,
