A group of us went to see My Fair Lady in 1910's costume Saturday night. It was a very good community theater production at a theater built in the 1930's. It's a nice venue, and they're a good community theater group. I particularly liked their Henry Higgins, Mrs. Higgins was very funny, and Freddy Eynsford-Hill did a marvelous job with "On the Street Where You Live."

Ten of us met for dinner at a restaurant a few blocks away from the theater for a very nice dinner then walked over to the theater for the show. I think we made quite a nice group.

Here's dinner at Jose's Villa Italia:

We also took pictures of the individual couples at the end.
1916 Evening Dress

I'm glad I got to wear my 1916 evening dress again.

All pictures were supplied by Martha Graham.

What a fun event! And wow, white tie on men is SO impressive. I'm ridiculously thrilled by that. :)

Not one, but two white ties! Richard's coat is an antique, but it looks new from where I was sitting.
