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
‘Funny Girl’ at Kravis uneven, but offers star power from actress Shankman
6 / 10
Shankman does not stray far from Streisand’s line deliveries and vocal phrasing, without coming off as an imitation. Fanny is still the center of the show, but she no longer monopolizes the evening. As Nick, Stephen Mark Lukas elbows his way into a couple of Shankman’s numbers, which he delivers with a creamy baritone, though his acting is often on the stiff side. And as Fanny’s pal and booster Eddie Ryan, Izaiah Montaque Harris gets some standout time showing off his considerable tap skill. Perhaps the biggest name in the cast is Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Melissa Manchester, though she is largely wasted as Fanny’s mother.
'Funny Girl' at the Orpheum Is Carried By the Star Power of Its Very Talented Lead
8 / 10
The role is also a pretty serious acting challenge as well, demanding that the star have the comedic tone and timing of old-school Jewish humor, enough that you're convinced why Fannie Brice became a star in the first place. And without channeling young Barbra directly, McKrimmon also excels at bringing Brice to life between the song and dance numbers.

It seems an impossible feat to follow in the shadow of the legendary Barbara Streisand who originated the iconic role of Fanny Brice in the 1964 Broadway production of FUNNY GIRL, which received eight Tony Award nominations. But Hannah Shankman marched herself onto the stage at the Ohio Theatre and commanded every beat of the drum. She’s quirky, clever, adorable, ambitious, lovable, and has impeccable comedic timing – but her show stopping voice is what sets her apart and generates thunderous, mouth-dropping applause. And she does it with such natural ease.
