"My Fair Lady" (1956), music by Frederick Loewe, book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner, based on George Bernard Shaw's 1913 play Pygmalion.  Once it opened in New York, Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady quickly earned the title of "the perfect musical."  It broke Broadway records and enchanted audiences worldwide with its wit, romance and unforgettable score.  The story follows cockney flower girl Eliza Doolittle, who becomes the subject of phonetics professor Henry Higgins’ bold experiment: to transform her speech and manners so that she can pass as a duchess in high society.

**New stop and new restaurant this year!  Travel with us to Sugarcreek, Millersburg, Berlin and Walnut Creek, the heart of Ohio's Amish Country. Meet our local step-on guide and begin the day at Hershberger's Bakery and Farm Market, the largest Amish family owned bakery.  Shop their full line of delicious baked goods and browse the fresh produce in the farm market.  Mid-day we'll dine on a family-style feast of Amish favorites as we enjoy a buffet meal with a full salad bar and dessert at Farmstead Restaurant. After lunch we'll visit a brand new stop, the Berlin Craft Mall.  This craft mall is unique in that it is stocked with locally made handcrafted goods, the sales of which benefit the local nonprofit daycare for children with special needs.  Then shop for apples and cider at Hillcrest Apple Orchard, and our last stop will be at Walnut Creek Cheese and Bulk Food Store.  Of course, time is allowed for shopping at each stop we make and you'll receive a "goodie" to take home with you. Bring a cooler if you wish to purchase meat. Make sure it is identified with your name. Recall that some businesses we visit do not accept credit cards. Includes round trip deluxe motorcoach transportation, family-style meal, the services of a local step-on guide, goodie bag with gifts, touring and shopping time.

Recently-widowed salesgirl Alice and her daughter Katie are desperately seeking the one thing that makes Christmas . . . Christmas.  Down to their last dime and last hour, they hatch two secret plans that put them on a collision course with disaster that only a Christmas Eve miracle will solve.  But time is running out!  Attention shoppers, the store is closing in five minutes!  Big on laughs, full of heart and with a score that sounds like it stepped right off a Broadway stage, "The Christmas Rush" is the new Christmas musical at the Blue Gate Theatre in Shipshewana, IN.  The show promises to deliver a special gift of entertainment and inspiration this holiday season.  Enjoy the Blue Gate's delicious Amish family-style meal before the afternoon show. Time permitting, we will make a shopping stop at the bulk food store (cash or check only at bulk food store, no credit cards) in Shipshewana.  Please note:  tour cost is non-refundable as of Aug. 28, 2026.  Reservations paid after Aug. 28, 2026 are subject to availability.  Includes round trip deluxe motorcoach transportation, family-style meal, show and shopping time.
