From the streets of New York’s Lower East Side to the bright lights of Broadway, “Funny Girl” is the rags-to-riches, road-to-stardom story of legendary entertainer Fanny Brice.
A love story packed with unforgettable songs (“Don’t Rain on My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star,” “I Am Woman, You Are Man” and the international hit “People”), irresistible backstage drama and a heartbreaking romance, this classic musical takes theatregoers back to the Golden Age of Ziegfeld and the height of burlesque. Part show-biz spectacular, part timeless love story, “Funny Girl” is pure Broadway legend. “Funny Girl” originally opened on Broadway in 1964 and was the hottest ticket in town, winning eight Tony Award® nominations, and playing over 1300 performances through 1967.
Open to all types, all ethnicities, and actors with disabilities unless otherwise noted.
Ensemble Singers:
Males and females, 20s – 50s. Interesting types to play an assortment of characters. Lots of speaking and singing lines and “moments.” Possible principal understudy assignments as well. Must sing very well.
