Showbiz Christchurch and Christchurch Music Theatre Education Trust have cancelled their production of My Fair Lady.

My Fair Lady was scheduled for April but restrictions on Covid19 made that impossible.

The organisations said the cancellation was due to ongoing uncertainty around COVID-19 and the financial risks associated with delivering a musical of this scale.

 In a joint statement they said ”this is a devastating blow for our creatives, artists, contractors, volunteers and crew as well as our stakeholders and loyal audience members and we are deeply saddened that we cannot bring My Fair Lady to Christchurch.”

 All ticket holders are entitled to a full refund. More details can be found here

Tickets purchased online by credit or debit card will be refunded in full and patrons do not need to take any action.

Patrons should allow up to 30 working days for the refund to appear in their account. Any questions should be directed to [email protected] 
 
Showbiz Christchurch and the Christchurch Music Theatre Education Trust said they are looking forward to bringing the musical Buddy: The Buddy Holly Story to Christchurch in September 2021.
