Hello, Gorgeous! Welcome to Musical Theatre Comedy Heaven.
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. Fanny's rise to super-stardom is explored through Bob Merrill and Jule Styne's unforgettable score, which includes "I'm the Greatest Star," "Don't Rain On My Parade," and "People."
**Advisory: Funny Girl is recommended for ages 10 and up. The listed age is a recommendation; please use your own discretion when making a decision for your young-theatergoer.
