theme: each theme answer consists of a body part followed by a word that can refer to a house/building. new york times, 06 24 2024, by anthony v. grubb great double part monday theme! i picked up the body part theme right away, then eventually realized the connection between the second halves, but the revealer was a happy surprise for me. backroom is my least favorite answer because the “room” is the least slangy and the most literal, but at least the clue tries to make it more figurative. shindigs is my favorite because of how the meaning changes for both halves. but overall, i would not have guessed there would be a set of symmetric phrases that fit this pattern, and it gave me an “aha!” moment i don’t always get on mondays. quick hits on the rest of the puzzle: happy monday all! congrats to anthony on a great nyt debut! theme answers are compound words or two word phrases where the end of one entry is the start of the ensuing entry. the final entry’s last word is also the first entry’s first word, bringing things full circle. wall st journal crossword solution · “round trip” · mike shenk · mon., 6.24.24 i enjoyed this. yes, there’s a lot of duplication, but it made for a nice, breezy monday solve. i also enjoyed the symmetry of the grid design with all 7 letter theme answers and entire entries with circled squares. it just made the solve feel cleaner and smoother. the same could be said of the fill which i found enjoyable all around with these highlights: double play, back issues, emerald, boolean (a gimme for this one time programmer), cherish, and tote bag. the new flag of utah clues of note: four stars. los angeles times 6/24/24 by larry snyder themes like this one have always eluded me   as a constructor, not as a solver. i always wonder how folks have the patience to identify not only a number of pairs that work this way, but enough such pairs that one can find a symmetrical set. or i envy those who know how to code and can thus find theme pairs that way. what am i talking about? theme pairs in which both parts of a theme phrase fit a certain pattern, as is the case here. the revealer at 64a [repeatedly, or what can come before the main components of 17 , 30 , 39 , or 46 across] is over and over, meaning that the word over can precede each of the halves of each theme answer to generate a new word or phrase: i liked the nonthematic 10s strike zone and bookseller; there’s also an unusual trap for the unwary downs only solver at 54d [silly], where i put goosy instead of the correct goofy (the crossing should be fear, but sear is totally plausible if you aren’t checking). universal • 6/24/24 • mon • summer themeless week, puzzle 1 • snyder • solution • 20240624 smooth grid, relatively easy cluing. there were a few spots where i needed to pause, change approach, wait for crossings. one entry (37a) featured an unannounced variant spelling: [middle eastern salad with parsley and lemon] tabbouleh. m w.com, which is generally my primary dictionary source when writing about puzzles here, lists tabouleh, with tabouli and tabbouleh as alternate transliterations. new yorker crossword solution, 6/24/24   agard an enjoyable, hard but not too hard themeless from erik, as usual chock full of great clues. clues that popped: fave fill: mascara, best of three, maya erskine (loved pen15), lacrosse (this indigenous sport is returning to the olympics in 2028; did not know it as [sport also called the creator’s game]). did not know pao was [bread, in portuguese], but it makes sense. did not know [influential 1988 hip hop album whose artist was seventeen at the time of its release], lyte as a rock, by pioneering female rapper mc lyte. 4.5 stars from me. tny: enjoyed the puzzle   seemed like about the right difficulty level for a monday. the eastern half fell pretty quickly, then the sw and central part, a little more slowly. have not heard of lyte as a rock, and i had resharing for quite a while at 19 d (i don’t do much social media). ne took a while to crack. i’ve heard of, but know little about insta, didn’t know the storm coach, nor aloo gobi, and i had put in tba instead of tbd, so i had a hard time seeing tendon. liked the clues for best of three and labor strike. had not heard lacrosse referred to as the creator’s game, but that’s interesting. a friend got me into watching the ncaa lacrosse tournament probably 20 years ago. some similarities to soccer and ice hockey, but higher scoring and (imo) much more entertaining. by chance i’m watching pen15 now so that was fun to see. even so i probably wouldn’t have known maya’s last name except that i had read that her dad is the great jazz bassist peter erskine. i’d like to say big thanks to the organizers and participants of the westwords tournament held yesterday in berkeley, it was super fun! everything went so smoothly, the puzzles were tough but fair, the crowd was friendly. hope it becomes an annual event! comments are closed.

supported by this year, 88 constructors published their first crossword puzzle in the new york times. by isaac aronow despite turning 82 this year, the new york times crossword is still full of new entries and new constructors. in the past four years, over 400 people have published their first puzzle in our pages   more than did so from 2009 to 2019. more people are solving the daily crossword than ever before, and some might argue that we’re in a crossword puzzle golden age. we had 88 debuts this year, four fewer than the record of 92 that was set in 2021 and repeated in 2023. this year did set one record, though: we had puzzles by 244 constructors   one more than record set in 2023. “these newer, more diverse voices expand the lens of what phrases and concepts may be encountered and enjoyed by solvers,” said tracy bennett, a new york times puzzle editor, adding that their work also was “enriching the variety of our puzzles and encouraging an emerging audience of new solvers.” beyond that, she said, this wider base of constructors “challenges established and veteran puzzle makers to question their familiar tried and true formulas, and to consider a wider range of vocabularies and themes in their own work.”

president in the 2016 race, losing out to future president donald trump. the roma tomato isn’t considered an heirloom variety but it is very popular with home gardeners, especially those gardeners that don’t have a lot of space. it is a bush type (as opposed to vine type) and needs very little room to provide a lot of tomatoes. the city of lincoln is the second largest in nebraska, and is the state capital. in the days of the nebraska territory, the capital was the larger city of omaha. when the territory was being considered for statehood, most of the population (which lived south of the river platte) was in favor of annexation to kansas. the pro statehood legislature voted to move the capital nearer to that population in a move intended to appease those favoring annexation. as this conflict was taking place just after the civil war, a special interest group in omaha arranged for the new capital to be named lincoln, in honor of the recently assassinated president. the thought was that the populace south of the river platte had been sympathetic to the confederate cause and so would not pass the measure to move the capital if the lincoln name was used. but the measure passed, the capital was moved, and nebraska became the thirty seventh state of the union in 1867. jackson is the capital of the state of mississippi. it was named for president andrew jackson, although the name was bestowed before he ran for electoral office. general jackson was so honored in recognition of his victory at the battle of new orleans during the war of 1812. madison is the second largest city in wisconsin (after milwaukee), and is the state capital. the city was named for president james madison, who was one of the signers of the us constitution. many of madison’s first streets were named for the 39 other signatories. the stock phrase “once upon a time …” has been used in various forms as the start of a narrative at least since 1380. the stock phrase at the end of stories such as folktales is often “and they all lived happily ever after”. the earlier version of this ending was “happily until their deaths”. it seems that it isn’t fully understood how the intrauterine device (iud) works. the design that was most popular for decades was a t shaped plastic frame on which was wound copper wire. it’s thought that the device is an irritant in the uterus causing the body to release chemicals that are hostile to sperm and eggs. this effect is enhanced by the presence of the copper. “shindig” is such a lovely word, i think. it describes a party that usually includes some dancing. although its origin isn’t really clear, the term perhaps comes from “shinty”, a scottish game that’s similar to field hockey. there’s a lot of speculation about how the dessert called a sundae got its name, but there seems to be agreement that it is an alteration of the word “sunday”. udo is a perennial plant native to japan known taxonomically as aralia cordata. the stems of udo are sometimes boiled up and served in miso soup. taylor swift’s eras tour started on saint patrick’s day in 2023 in glendale, arizona, with a schedule covering five continents over two years. swift described the line up songs as “a journey through the musical eras of [her 17 year] career”. we use the term “hearse” for a vehicle used to transport a dead body to the place of burial. the original meaning, still used sometimes today, is for a framework hanging over a coffin that holds candles. “who framed roger rabbit” is a clever 1988 film featuring cartoon characters that interact directly with human beings. the most memorable cartoon characters have to be goofy roger rabbit, and vampish jessica rabbit. the film is based on a novel written by gary k. wolf called “who censored roger rabbit?” there is a prequel floating around that has never been produced, which is titled “who discovered roger rabbit”. “sofa” is a turkish word meaning “bench”. the latin word for “iron” is “ferrum”, which gives us “fe” as the metal’s chemical symbol. spambots are nasty little computer programs that send out spam emails and messages, often from fake accounts. this blog gets about 500 spam comments a day that i have to delete, almost all of which are written by spambots. a megaphone is also known as a loudhailer or bullhorn. it was probably thomas edison who coined, or at least popularized, the term “megaphone” in 1878. he created a megaphone that was intended to benefit those who were hard of hearing. edison’s device was relatively clumsy, and far from portable. however, it allowed a person speaking in a normal voice to be heard about two miles away! famously, there is a gap of 18½ minutes in the nixon white house tapes. rose mary woods, president nixon’s secretary, reported that she was reviewing one of the tapes when she accidentally hit record instead of the stop button, causing about 5 minutes of erasure. there is an additional 13 minutes of “buzzing” that she could not explain. there has been much speculation about what actually happened, as a review of notes made in the meeting covered by the tape show that the arrests made at the watergate were discussed. brie is a soft cheese that is named for the french region in which it originated. brie is similar to the equally famous (and delicious) camembert. brie is often served baked in puff pastry with fig jam. the term “parachute” was coined by frenchman françois blanchard, from “para ” meaning “defense against” and “chute” meaning “a fall”. the american sedan car is the equivalent of the british and irish saloon car. by definition, a sedan car has two rows of seating and a separate trunk (boot in britain and ireland), although in some models the engine can be at the rear of the car. “lint”, meaning “fluff”, is one of those terms that i had to learn when i moved to the us. we call the same thing “fuzz” on the other side of the atlantic. the crusades were a series of religious wars fought between the 11th and 15th centuries. the term “crusade” came into english via french and spanish from the latin “crux” meaning “cross”. the use of the term was retrospective, with the first recorded use in english in 1757. the relevance of “crux” is that most crusaders swore a vow to reach jerusalem from europe, and then received a cloth cross that was then sewn into their clothing. the term “crusade” persists to this day, and is now used figuratively to describe any vigorous campaign in pursuit of a moral objective. “the ren & stimpy show” is an animated television serial created by canadian animator john kricfalusi, and which ran on nickelodeon from 1991 to 1996. the title characters are marland “ren” höek, a scrawny chihuahua, and stimpson j. cat, a rotund manx cat. not my cup of tea … an aglet is a plastic or metal sheath that is found on the end of a shoelace or perhaps a drawstring. the name “aglet” comes from the old french word “aiguillette” meaning “needle”. tsetse flies live on the blood of vertebrate mammals. the name “tsetse” comes from tswana, a language of southern africa, and translates simply as “fly”. tsetse flies are famous for being carriers of the disease known as “sleeping sickness”. sleeping sickness is caused by a parasite which is passed onto humans when the tsetse fly bites into human skin tissue. if one considers all the diseases transmitted by the insect, then the tsetse fly is responsible for a staggering quarter of a million deaths each year. roger ebert co hosted a succession of film review television programs for over 23 years, most famously with gene siskel until siskel passed away in 1999. siskel and ebert famously gave their thumbs up or thumbs down to the movies they reviewed. ebert died in 2013. starfish (sometimes known as “sea stars”) come in many shapes and sizes, but commonly have “pentaradial symmetry”, meaning they have symmetrical body shapes with five points. most starfish are predators, mainly living on a diet of mollusks such as clams and oysters. the great geysir in iceland is the first known geyser to have been discovered and documented. the name “geysir” comes from the icelandic and old norse word “geysa” meaning “to gush”. it is the great geysir that gives us our english word “geyser”. the foodstuff that we call “hops” are actually the female flowers of the hop plant. the main use of hops is to add flavor to beer. the town in which i used to live here in california was once home to the largest hop farm in the world. most of the harvested hops were exported all the way to the breweries of london, where they could fetch the best price. india pale ale (ipa) is a style of beer that originated in england. the beer was originally intended for transportation from england to india, hence the name. neo is the character played by keanu reeves in “the matrix” series of films. one of neo’s actions is to choose a red pill over a blue pill. the blue pill would have allowed him to remain in the matrix, a fabricated reality. the red pill led to his escape into the real world, and a much more difficult life. the japanese art of flower arranging is very much focused on minimalism, the use of a minimum number of blooms arranged among a few stalks and leaves. the japanese name for the art is “ikebana”, which can be translated as “making flowers alive”. the phrase “to have dibs on” expresses a claim on something. apparently, the term “dibs” is a contraction of “dibstone”, which was a knucklebone or jack used in a children’s game. when rko released the 1933 movie “king kong”, the promotional material listed the ape’s height as 50 feet. during filming, a bust was created for a 40 foot ape, as well as a full size hand that went with a 70 foot kong. a central plot line in the 1941 movie “citizen kane” is a newsreel reporter’s quest to find the meaning of the dying word “rosebud” spoken by the title character. spoiler alert … it is revealed at the end of the movie that “rosebud” is the name of the sled used by kane in his childhood, which was the only period of his life in which he was really happy. the 2003 movie “the italian job” is fairly loosely based on a fabulous 1969 film of the same name starring michael caine. the 2003 film is outstanding in its own right, and a favorite of mine. it stars mark wahlberg, charlize theron and donald sutherland. the “job” is an exciting heist in venice, that involves a watery getaway. there is a second heist in los angeles with a road bound getaway in mini cooper cars. back in the 1920s, the term “patootie” was used for a sweetheart, a very pretty girl. somehow, the term has evolved into slang for the posterior, rear end. in the “star wars” series of films, the character named yoda has a unique speech pattern. he often uses the word order object subject verb. for example: ariana grande is a singer and actress from boca raton, florida. grande plays the role of cat valentine on the sitcom “victorious” that aired for four seasons on nickelodeon. grande’s singing career took off with the release of the 2011 album “victorious: music from the hit tv show”. a neti pot is a spouted

my fair lady is a musical with a book and lyrics by alan jay lerner and music by frederick loewe. the story, based on george bernard shaw's 1913 play pygmalion and on the 1938 film adaptation of the play, concerns eliza doolittle, a cockney flower girl who takes speech lessons from professor henry higgins, a phonetician, so that she may pass as a lady. despite his cynical nature and difficulty understanding women, higgins grows attached to her. the musical's 1956 broadway production was a notable critical and popular success, winning six tony awards, including best musical. it set a record for the longest run of any musical on broadway up to that time and was followed by a hit london production. rex harrison and julie andrews starred in both productions. many revivals have followed, and the 1964 film version won the academy award for best picture. in edwardian london, eliza doolittle is a flower girl with a thick cockney accent. the noted phonetician professor henry higgins encounters eliza at covent garden and laments the vulgarity of her dialect ("why can't the english?"). higgins also meets colonel pickering, another linguist, and invites him to stay as his houseguest. eliza and her friends wonder what it would be like to live a comfortable life ("wouldn't it be loverly?"). eliza's dustman father, alfred p. doolittle, stops by the next morning searching for money for a drink ("with a little bit of luck"). soon after, eliza comes to higgins's house, seeking elocution lessons so that she can get a job as an assistant in a florist's shop. higgins wagers pickering that, within six months, by teaching eliza to speak properly, he will enable her to pass for a proper lady. eliza becomes part of higgins's household. though higgins sees himself as a kindhearted man who merely cannot get along with women ("i'm an ordinary man"), to others he appears self absorbed and misogynistic. eliza endures higgins's tyrannical speech tutoring. frustrated, she dreams of different ways to kill him ("just you wait"). higgins's servants lament the stressful atmosphere ("the servants' chorus"). just as higgins is about to give up on her, eliza suddenly recites one of her diction exercises in perfect upper class style ("the rain in spain"). though mrs pearce, the housekeeper, insists that eliza go to bed, she declares she is too excited to sleep ("i could have danced all night"). for her first public tryout, higgins takes eliza to his mother's box at ascot racecourse ("ascot gavotte"). though eliza shocks everyone when she forgets herself while watching a race and reverts to foul language, she does capture the heart of freddy eynsford hill. freddy calls on eliza that evening, and he declares that he will wait for her in the street outside higgins' house ("on the street where you live"). eliza's final test requires her to pass as a lady at the embassy ball. after more weeks of preparation, she is ready. ("eliza's entrance"). all the ladies and gentlemen at the ball admire her, and the queen of transylvania invites her to dance with the prince ("embassy waltz"). a hungarian phonetician, zoltan karpathy, attempts to discover eliza's origins. higgins allows karpathy to dance with eliza.[1] the ball is a success; karpathy has declared eliza to be a hungarian princess. pickering and higgins revel in their triumph ("you did it"), failing to pay attention to eliza. eliza is insulted at receiving no credit for her success, packing up and leaving the higgins house. as she leaves she finds freddy, who begins to tell her how much he loves her, but she tells him that she has heard enough words; if he really loves her, he should show it ("show me"). eliza and freddy return to covent garden but she finds she no longer feels at home there. her father is there as well, and he tells her that he has received a surprise bequest from an american millionaire, which has raised him to middle class respectability, and now must marry his lover. doolittle and his friends have one last spree before the wedding ("get me to the church on time"). higgins awakens the next morning. he finds himself out of sorts without eliza. he wonders why she left after the triumph at the ball and concludes that men (especially himself) are far superior to women ("a hymn to him"). col. pickering is concerned about eliza's well being, calling the police as well as contacting an old chum he believes will help them track her down. higgins despondently visits his mother's house, where he finds eliza. eliza declares she no longer needs higgins ("without you"). as higgins walks home, he realizes he's grown attached to eliza ("i've grown accustomed to her face"). at home, he sentimentally reviews the recording he made the day eliza first came to him for lessons, hearing his own harsh words. eliza suddenly appears in his home. in suppressed joy at their reunion, professor higgins scoffs and asks, "eliza, where the devil are my slippers?" the original cast of the broadway stage production:[2] act i[2] act ii in the mid 1930s, film producer gabriel pascal acquired the rights to produce film versions of several of george bernard shaw's plays, pygmalion among them. however, shaw, having had a bad experience with the chocolate soldier, a viennese operetta based on his play arms and the man, refused permission for pygmalion to be adapted into a musical. after shaw died in 1950, pascal asked lyricist alan jay lerner to write the musical adaptation. lerner agreed, and he and his partner frederick loewe began work. but they quickly realised that the play violated several key rules for constructing a musical: the main story was not a love story, there was no subplot or secondary love story, and there was no place for an ensemble.[3] many people, including oscar hammerstein ii, who, with richard rodgers, had also tried his hand at adapting pygmalion into a musical and had given up, told lerner that converting the play to a musical was impossible, so he and loewe abandoned the project for two years.[4] during this time, the collaborators separated, and pascal died. lerner had been trying to musicalize li'l abner when he read pascal's obituary and found himself thinking about pygmalion again.[5] when he and loewe reunited, everything fell into place. all of the insurmountable obstacles that had stood in their way two years earlier disappeared when the team realized that the play needed few changes apart from (according to lerner) "adding the action that took place between the acts of the play".[6] they then excitedly began writing the show. however, chase manhattan bank was in charge of pascal's estate, and the musical rights to pygmalion were sought both by lerner and loewe and by metro goldwyn mayer, whose executives called lerner to discourage him from challenging the studio. loewe decided, "we will write the show without the rights, and when the time comes for them to decide who is to get them, we will be so far ahead of everyone else that they will be forced to give them to us."[7] for five months lerner and loewe wrote, hired technical designers, and made casting decisions. the bank, in the end, granted them the musical rights. various titles were suggested for the musical. dominic mchugh wrote: "during the autumn of 1955, the show [was] typically referred to as my lady liza, and most of the contracts refer to this as the title."[8] lerner preferred my fair lady, relating both to one of shaw's provisional titles for pygmalion and to the final line of every verse of the nursery rhyme "london bridge is falling down". recalling that the gershwins' 1925 musical tell me more had been titled my fair lady in its out of town tryout, and also had a musical number under that title, lerner made a courtesy call to ira gershwin, alerting him to the use of the title for the lerner and loewe musical.[citation needed] noël coward was the first to be offered the role of henry higgins, but he turned it down, suggesting the producers cast rex harrison instead.[9] after much deliberation, harrison agreed to accept the part. mary martin was an early choice for the role of eliza doolittle, but declined the role.[10] young actress julie andrews was "discovered" and cast as eliza after the show's creative team went to see her broadway debut in the boy friend.[11] moss hart agreed to direct after hearing only two songs. the experienced orchestrators robert russell bennett and philip j. lang were entrusted with the arrangements, and the show quickly went into rehearsal.[citation needed] the musical's script used several scenes that shaw had written especially for the 1938 film version of pygmalion, including the embassy ball sequence and the final scene of the 1938 film rather than the ending for shaw's original play.[12] the montage showing eliza's lessons was also expanded, combining both lerner's and shaw's dialogue. the artwork on the original broadway poster (and the sleeve of the cast recording) is by al hirschfeld, who drew the playwright shaw as a heavenly puppetmaster pulling the strings on the henry higgins character, while higgins in turn attempts to control eliza doolittle.[13] the musical had its pre broadway tryout at new haven's shubert theatre. at the first preview rex harrison, who was unaccustomed to singing in front of a live orchestra, "announced that under no circumstances would he go on that night...with those thirty two interlopers in the pit".[14] he locked himself in his dressing room and came out little more than an hour before curtain time. the whole company had been dismissed but were recalled, and opening night was a success.[15] my fair lady then played for four weeks at the erlanger theatre in philadelphia, beginning on february 15, 1956. the musical premiered on broadway march 15, 1956, at the mark hellinger theatre in new york city. it transferred to the broadhurst theatre and then the broadway theatre, where it closed on september 29, 1962, after 2,717 performances, a record at the time. moss hart directed and hanya holm was choreographer. in addition to stars rex harrison, julie andrews and stanley holloway, the original cast included robert coote, cathleen nesbitt, john michael king, and reid shelton.[16] harrison was replaced by edward mulhare in november 1957 and sally ann howes replaced andrews in february 1958.[17][18] by the start of 1959, it was the biggest grossing broadway show of all time with a gross of $10 million.[19] the original cast recording, released on april 2, 1956, was the best selling album in the united states in 1956.[20] the west end production, in which harrison, andrews, coote, and holloway reprised their roles, opened on april 30, 1958, at the theatre royal, drury lane, where it ran for five and a half years[21] (2,281 performances). edwardian musical comedy star zena dare made her last appearance in the musical as mrs. higgins.[22] leonard weir played freddy. harrison left the london cast in march 1959, followed by andrews in august 1959 and holloway in october 1959. the first broadway revival opened at the st. james theatre 20 years after the original, on march 25, 1976, and ran there until december 5, 1976; it then transferred to the lunt fontanne theatre, running from december 9, 1976, until it closed on february 20, 1977, after a total of 377 performances and 7 previews. the director was jerry adler, with choreography by crandall diehl, based on the original choreography by hanya holm. ian richardson starred as higgins, with christine andreas as eliza, george rose as alfred p. doolittle and robert coote recreating his role as colonel pickering.[16] both richardson and rose were nominated for the tony award for best actor in a musical, with the award going to rose. a cameron mackintosh revival opened at london's adelphi theatre in october 1979, following a national tour. originated at the haymarket theatre leicester, the production was created under a new agreement with the arts council to tour west end standard productions. it featured tony britton as higgins, liz robertson as eliza, dame anna neagle as higgins's mother, peter bayliss as doolittle, richard caldicot as pickering and peter land as freddy. it was directed by robin midgley,[23][24][25] with sets by adrian vaux, costumes by tim goodchild and choreography by gillian lynne.[26] britton and robertson were both nominated for olivier awards.[27] the second broadway revival of the original production opened at the uris theatre on august 18, 1981, and closed on november 29, 1981, after 119 performances and 5 previews. rex harrison recreated his role as higgins, with jack gwillim as pickering, milo o'shea as doolittle, and cathleen nesbitt, at 93 years old reprising her role as mrs. higgins. the revival co starred nancy ringham as eliza. the director was patrick garland, with choreography by crandall diehl, recreating the original hanya holm dances.[16][28] a new revival directed by howard davies opened at the virginia theatre on december 9, 1993, and closed on may 1, 1994, after 165 performances and 16 previews. the cast starred richard chamberlain as higgins, melissa errico as eliza and paxton whitehead as pickering. julian holloway, son of stanley holloway, recreated his father's role of alfred p. doolittle. donald saddler was the choreographer.[16][29] cameron mackintosh produced a new production on march 15, 2001, at the royal national theatre, which transferred to the theatre royal, drury lane on july 21. directed by trevor nunn, with choreography by matthew bourne, the musical starred martine mccutcheon as eliza and jonathan pryce as higgins, with dennis waterman as alfred p. doolittle. this revival won three olivier awards: outstanding musical production, best actress in a musical (martine mccutcheon) and best theatre choreographer (matthew bourne), with anthony ward receiving a nomination for set design.[30] in december 2001, joanna riding took over the role of eliza, and in may 2002, alex jennings took over as higgins, both winning olivier awards for best actor and best actress in a musical respectively in 2003.[31] in march 2003, anthony andrews and laura michelle kelly took over the roles until the show closed on august 30, 2003.[32] a uk tour of this production began september 28, 2005. the production starred amy nuttall and lisa o'hare as eliza, christopher cazenove as henry higgins, russ abbot and gareth hale as doolittle, and honor blackman[33] and hannah gordon as mrs. higgins. the tour ended august 12, 2006.[34] in 2003 a production of the musical at the hollywood bowl starred john lithgow as higgins, melissa errico as eliza, roger daltrey as doolittle, kevin earley as freddy, lauri johnson as mrs. pearce, caroline blakiston as mrs. higgins, and paxton whitehead as colonel pickering.[35][36] a broadway revival produced by lincoln center theater and nederlander presentations inc. began previews on march 15, 2018, at the vivian beaumont theater and officially opened on april 19, 2018. it was directed by bartlett sher with choreography by christopher gattelli, scenic design by michael yeargan, costume design by catherine zuber and lighting design by donald holder.[37] the cast included lauren ambrose

presented by the english national opera at the london coliseum with performances from may 7, 2022, and an official opening on may 18, for a 16 week run until august 27. it starred amara okereke as

1, 1961, at the theater des westens in berlin, starring karin hübner and paul hubschmid (and conducted, as was the broadway opening, by franz allers). coming at the height of cold war tensions, just weeks after the closing of the east berlin west berlin border and the erection of the berlin wall, this was the first staging of a broadway musical in berlin since world war ii. as such it was seen as a symbol of west berlin's cultural renaissance and resistance. lost attendance from east berlin (now no longer possible) was partly made up by a "musical air bridge" of flights bringing in patrons from west germany, and the production was embraced by berliners, running for two years.[50][51] in 2007 the new york philharmonic held a full costume concert presentation of the musical. the concert had a four day engagement lasting from march 7 10 at lincoln center's avery fisher hall. it starred kelsey grammer as higgins, kelli o'hara as eliza, charles kimbrough as pickering, and brian dennehy

tyzack (mrs. higgins), nicholas le prevost (colonel pickering), donald maxwell (alfred doolittle), and jenny galloway (mrs. pearce).[57] a new production of my fair lady opened at sheffield crucible on december 13, 2012. dominic west played henry higgins, and carly bawden played eliza doolittle. sheffield theatres' artistic director daniel evans was the director. the production ran until january 26, 2013.[58][59] the gordon frost organisation, together with opera australia, presented a production at the sydney opera house from august 30 to november 5, 2016. it was directed by julie andrews and featured the set and costume designs of the original 1956 production by smith and beaton.[60] the production sold more tickets than any other in the history of the sydney opera house.[61] the show's opening run in sydney was so successful that in november 2016, ticket pre sales were released for a re run in sydney, with the extra shows scheduled between august 24 and september 10, 2017, at the capitol theatre.[62] in 2017, the show toured to brisbane from march 12 and melbourne from may 11.[63] the cast featured alex jennings as higgins (charles edwards for brisbane and melbourne seasons), anna o'byrne as eliza, reg livermore as alfred p. doolittle, robyn nevin as mrs. higgins (later pamela rabe), mark vincent as freddy, tony llewellyn jones as colonel pickering, deidre rubenstein as mrs. pearce, and david whitney as karpathy.[62][63][64] according to geoffrey block, "opening night critics immediately recognized that my fair lady fully measured up to the rodgers and hammerstein model of an integrated musical ... robert coleman ... wrote 'the lerner loewe songs are not only delightful, they advance the action as well. they are ever so much more than interpolations, or interruptions.'"[65] the musical opened to "unanimously glowing reviews, one of which said 'don't bother reading this review now. you'd better sit right down and send for those tickets ...' critics praised the thoughtful use of shaw's original play, the brilliance of the lyrics, and loewe's well integrated score."[66] a sampling of praise from critics, excerpted from a book form of the musical, published in 1956.[67] the reception from shavians was more mixed, however. eric bentley, for instance, called it "a terrible treatment of mr. shaw's play, [undermining] the basic idea [of the play]", even though he acknowledged it as "a delightful show".[68] my fair lady was later called "the perfect musical".[69] sources: broadwayworld[82] theatreworldawards[83] dramacritics.org[84] sources: broadwayworld[85] drama desk[86] source: olivier awards[87] source: broadwayworld[88] source: drama desk[89] source: olivier awards[90] george cukor directed the 1964 film adaptation, with harrison returning in the role of higgins. the casting of audrey hepburn as eliza created controversy among theatregoers, both because andrews was regarded as perfect in the part and because hepburn's singing voice was dubbed (by marni nixon). jack l. warner, the head of warner bros., wanted "a star with a great deal of name recognition", but since andrews did not have any film experience, he deemed success more likely with an established movie star.[93] (andrews went on to star in mary poppins that same year for which she won both the academy award and the golden globe for best actress.) lerner in particular disliked the film version of the musical, thinking it did not live up to the standards of moss hart's original direction. he was also unhappy with the casting of hepburn as eliza doolittle and that the film was shot in its entirety at the warner bros. studio rather than, as he would have preferred, in london.[94] despite the controversy, my fair lady was considered a major critical and box office success, and won eight oscars, including best picture of the year, best actor for rex harrison, and best director for george cukor. columbia pictures planned a new adaptation in 2008.[95] by 2011, john madden had been signed to direct the film, and emma thompson had written a new screenplay, but the studio had shelved it by 2014.[96][97]

supported by wordplay, the crossword column anthony v. grubb makes his new york times debut. by sam corbin jump to: today’s theme | tricky clues note to readers: in the past, wordplay indicated crossword clues with quotation marks. in crossword construction and editing, though, clues are typically indicated by brackets, a practice wordplay is now following. monday puzzle   the first day of sweltering summer heat can feel either welcome or dreadful, depending on your climate preferences. the heat wave last week made for a few exceptionally sticky days in new york city. i see this siesta friendly season as a boon for puzzle lovers. so long as we have a little shade and a breeze   be it from a fan, an air conditioning unit or an ocean   we can entertain ourselves with the simple pleasure of a daily crossword. today that crossword comes to us from anthony v. grubb, in his new york times debut. with a beginner friendly theme but clues challenging enough to appeal to skilled solvers, this grid has something for everyone. christina iverson, a puzzle editor for the times, said that editors were particularly impressed by mr. grubb’s theme set. “it was one of those ‘oh, wow, how’d he find those?’ moments,” she said. “it’s a nice example of a common theme subject that is elevated by adding another layer.” ms. iverson’s compliment is especially   ahem   fit for this puzzle, given the theme subject.
