The Gilbert & Sullivan Society of South Australia presents Funny Girl, the classic Jule Styne and Bob Merrill musical following Fanny Brice, a young woman from New York's Lower East Side who rises from the vaudeville stage to the bright lights of Broadway's Ziegfeld Follies while navigating a complicated love affair with gambler Nick Arnstein. The role of Fanny Brice is shared across three performers — Olivia Sutton, Sarah Hamilton, and Sophie Stokes — with Daniel Hamilton as Nick Arnstein, and an ensemble cast including Carolyn Adams, Thomas Sheldon, David Kinsley, Wendy Rayner, and Nicholas Bishop. The production is directed by Amanda Rowe, with musical direction by Dylan Rufus, choreography by Kerry-Lynne Hauber, and set design by David Lampard. Featuring beloved songs including People and Don't Rain on My Parade, this marks the first time the production has been staged in this format in Adelaide.
