This bittersweet comedy is the story of the indomitable Fanny Brice, a girl from the Lower East Side who dreamed of a life on the stage.
Everyone told her she’d never be a star, but then something funny happened—she became one of the most beloved performers in history, shining brighter than the brightest lights of Broadway.
Funny Girl features music by Jule Styne with lyrics by Bob Merrill. The original book is by Isobel Lennart which has been updated by Harvey Fierstein.
The new revival is directed by Michael Mayer with choreography from Ellenore Scott, tap choreography by Ayodele Casel and scenic design by David Zinn.
