CONWAY — For M&D Playhouse’s 25th anniversary, co-founder Ken Martin came out of a five-year retirement in Hawaii to direct his dream show: “My Fair Lady,” Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe’s classic musical based on George Bernard Shaw’s play “Pygmalion.”

“My Fair Lady,” which opened last Thursday at the Eastern Slope Inn Playhouse in North Conway with performances Thursday through Sunday through July 13, tells the story of cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle (Zoe Daigle) who takes speech lessons from phonetician Henry Higgins (Tim Ostendorf). Higgins bets fellow linguistic Colonel Pickering (Craig Holden) that he can teach her to pass as a lady.
