My wife is Japanese and her sister is a musical actress. Coincidentally the team which my sister-in-law belongs to was also playing my fair lady on the same day, similar period. Here are some pictures from the Japanese version Pamphlet. Eliza was played by a very famous Japanese Musical actress Daich Mao.
The play had many repeats all ove the Japan and as a family member, my wife went to see the play several times. But After seeing the Australian version, she said the facial expression of the Western people are so rich and nice. And also she commented that Japanese actors need heavy make up and wigs to make themselves look like Westerns.
