Jefferson Performing Arts Society Presents: Funny Girl. Book by Isobel Lennart, Jule Styne, and Bob Merrill. Music and Lyrics by Bob Merrill and Jule Styne. Directed by Butch Caire, musical Direction by Dr. Donna Clavijo, choreography by Lori Flanders, JPAS Symphony Orchestra conducted by Maestro Dennis G. Assaf

The greatest star, the ultimate people person...the story of beloved comedienne Fanny Brice! Her story begins in New York's Lower East Side, where she clowns her way through burlesque and vaudeville with dreams of making it big. After meeting Nick Arnstein, Fanny immediately falls in love. And with her big break in the Ziegfeld Follies on the horizon, the stardom she has always longed for is within her grasp. Her only problem... the elusive Nick Arnstein, igno...rant of her affection, is always leaving town on some "business" venture. Truly one of the classics, Funny Girl features such favorites as "Don't Rain on My Parade" and "Sadie, Sadie".
