Babiak, who was seen in the Broadway revival of Fiddler on the Roof, as well as Emma in the WBT production of Jekyll & Hyde, will portray flower girl Eliza Doolittle, opposite Galantich (Broadway's City of Angels, Boeing-Boeing) as Henry Higgins and McCauley (Chicago, "30 Rock") as Colonel Pickering.

My Fair Lady will have set design by Steven Loftus, costume design by Gail Baldoni, lighting design is by Andrew Gmoser and sound design by Jonathan Hatton.

Based on George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion, "The story revolves around Eliza Doolittle, a coarse little peddler of flowers in Covent Garden who agrees to take speech lessons from phonetician Henry Higgins in order to fulfill her dream of working in a flower shop. Henry Higgins bets his friend, Colonel Pickering, that he can pass the common girl off as a society lady. Eliza succeeds so well, however, that she outgrows her social station and even and manages to become an indispensable part of Higgins' life." My Fair Lady features a book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe. The original Broadway production opened on March 15, 1956, ran for over six years and won nine Tony Awards, including one for Best Musical. The score contains such Broadway classics as "I Could Have Danced All Night," "On the Street Where You Live," "Wouldn't It Be Loverly?" and "Get Me to the Church on Time."
