A performance for anyone who identifies as human
Flower girl Eliza Doolittle is one of the most famous characters in theater history: she came to life in George Bernard Shaw's play "Pygmalion" and was later musicalized to world fame in "My Fair Lady.

In the contemporary interpretation "My Fair Human," Eliza is discovered by Katherine van Kalf, who wants to turn every woman into a successful brand and sees in Eliza her ultimate project. But Eliza is tired of being a "real woman. While Katherine stubbornly keeps trying to mold Eliza, Eliza wants only one more thing: to be human and to be seen as human.

My Fair Human' is a sharp, tragicomic performance that holds up a mirror to us. After all, aren't we all weighed down by social expectations and oppressive gender norms? In this play, which also touches on themes such as fertility, hormones and menopause, it is not the male gaze that condemns Eliza, but her own inner critic and the many female critics around her.
