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.
Featuring some of the most iconic songs in theatre history including "Don't Rain On My Parade," "I'm the Greatest Star," and "People," Michael Mayer's bold new production marks the first time Funny Girl has returned to Broadway since its debut 58 years ago.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Funny Girl
Review: The Brice is Right with FUNNY GIRL at the Fabulous Fox
9 / 10
Funny Girl features many wonderful performances, most noticeably Katerina McCrimmon as Fanny Brice. Energetic from start to finish, she is the heart and soul of the production. From the moment she hits the stage the audience is mesmerized by her powerful voice and exceptional comedic chops.
THEATER REVIEW: ‘Funny Girl’ plays at Proctors Theatre through April 6
7 / 10
Fanny was portrayed by Hannah Shankman, a lyric soprano whose lovely looks gave no hint of Fanny Brice’s awkwardly ethnic appearance. She seemed to have difficulty maintaining a New York accent and had a tendency to drop or eliminate or obscure the final syllable in many of the lyrics she sang. Both Brice and Streisand made every letter in every word count for the sake of both clarity and comedy. Shankman’s performance left a lot to be desired, although she sang the hell out of every number receiving major ovations for her delivery.
