Former "Frasier" co-stars John Mahoney and David Hyde Pierce who are both currently appearing on Broadway — in Prelude to a Kiss and Curtains, respectively — were on hand to take in Grammer's performance as Henry Higgins.
James Brennan directs the semi-staged concert performance of My Fair Lady, which plays Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall through March 10. Grammer stars as Professor Henry Higgins with O'Hara as Eliza Doolittle. The starry company also features Charles Kimbrough as Colonel Hugh Pickering, Brian Dennehy as Alfred Doolittle, Marni Nixon as Mrs. Higgins, Tim Jerome as Professor Zoltan Karpathy, Meg Bussert as Mrs. Pearce, Philippe Castagner as Freddy Eynsford-Hill, Michael J. Farina as Jamie and Joe Grifasi as Harry.
