Why see Funny Girl?
The musical comedy adventures of an unlikely Ziegfield girl named Fanny Brice was the talk of the town and the hottest ticket on Broadway in 1964.
FUNNY GIRL is the rags-to-riches, road-to-stardom story of a legendary entertainer. A love story packed with unforgettable songs: “Don’t Rain on My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star,” “The Music That Makes Me Dance,” and the iconic hit “People.” It’s an irresistible backstage drama, a heartbreaking romance, a classic musical that takes you back to the Golden Age of Ziegfeld and the height of burlesque.
Tony Award® winning director Bartlett Sher has reassembled the acclaimed creative team behind his ravishing revival of South Pacific to debut this new production at the Ahmanson.
