Love is just a wager away for a pretentious professor and a flower girl in CPCC Summer Theatre’s presentation of the award-winning Broadway musical, My Fair Lady. The story focuses on Henry Higgins, a snobbish professor who accepts a bet that he can turn Cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle into an established member of high society. Watch as tensions rise when the two begin to fall in love despite their once phonetic differences, and don’t miss out on such classic songs as “The Rain in Spain” and “Wouldn’t It Be Loverly.” $15- $21. June 4, 5, 11,12, 8 p.m., June 6, 2:30 p.m., June 8, 7 p.m., June 9, 10, 7:30 p.m. CPCC Halton Theater, 1201 Elizabeth Ave. For more information, call 704-330-6534 or visit www.carolinatix.org.
