Her life takes a dramatic turn when she meets Professor Henry Higgins, a linguistics expert who makes a bet that he can transform Eliza into a sophisticated lady by teaching her how to speak properly. As Eliza undergoes her transformation, the play explores themes of identity, societal expectations, and the power dynamics between different social classes.

“Good day! My name is Keith Smith and I have the honor and privilege of being the Director of Dinner Theatre for the Town of Hudson since its inception in 2003. I am smart enough to surround myself with great people, both in terms of talent AND quality as substantive individuals. We dare to dream big, take chances, work very hard while insisting on having fun. We will never achieve perfection and that is a large part of the challenge of the arts for me. But we can seek and attain consistent excellence. Please join us and our theatre family at an upcoming LIVE production!”
– Keith Smith, Director of Hudson Dinner Theater
“We have enjoyed the dinner and plays at the HUB for many years now and really love to bring our friends with us. The meal is always delicious and the performers are very professional and obviously have fun with the roles they’re playing.

“Dinner Theater was introduced to our community after the purchase of the old Hudson School and the renovation of the former school’s auditorium in 2003. Keith Smith, the theater’s incredibly talented and accomplished director from day one, continues to bring high quality performances to the HUB Station stage. “The Sound of Music” was one of my favorites, sold out each night to many standing ovations!”

I have been very fortunate to have found it, and be able to enjoy shows from the audience perspective, as well as that as an actor on its stage. The casts are comprised of very talented volunteer theatre devotees who give it their all in the spirit of ensemble performance. Laughter, tears, and a ton of enjoyment are experiences in store for all who attend the eclectic variety of musicals, drama and comedy shows presented at the Hub Station Dinner Theater.”
