Funny Girl at August Wilson Theatre

Fanny Brice, the main character, is not meant to be "pretty," yet she emanates a dazzling beauty. Everything about her—her voice, her comedic ways, her gentle charms, her elegant hands, and her eyes that penetrate with burning stares through the soul—is the stuff of legends.

Her narrative starts in her irrepressible youth on New York's Lower East Side, where the stage-struck teenager clowns her way through burlesque and vaudeville. Fanny is a bright cookie; she sings perfectly, has lofty ambitions, and knows she can win despite the doubts of her loved ones.

After meeting Nick Arnstein, a attractive and charming gambler with a softer side, Fanny's heart is immediately taken. The only problem is that Nick doesn't comprehend how she feels and is always disappearing on presumed "business" trips.

After a spirited encounter in Baltimore, Nick and Fanny boldly proclaim their feelings for one another, and Fanny gallantly decides to follow Nick across the ocean. After Nick wins a bankroll, the couple gets hitched. But as with all good things, Fanny must select between her husband, who is growing increasingly dissatisfied of her success in show business, and her fantastic career as an entertainer. You should not miss out on this incredible tale. Tickets are still available, but you should get them right away before they're all gone.
