Funny Girl at Ahmanson Theatre

The lead character, Fanny Brice, is not meant to be "pretty," but she shines with undeniable brilliance. Her voice, wit, eloquent charms, elegant hands, and eyes that penetrate with burning stares through the soul are nothing short of extraordinary.

Her story begins when she is a young, valiant performer on the Lower East Side of New York City, wandering through the worlds of burlesque and vaudeville in the midst of her epic journey. Fanny is a smart and gifted young woman who sings with beauty, has high goals, and is confident in her own capacity to accomplish them despite the doubts of her family and friends.

Fanny's heart is instantly taken by Nick Arnstein, a dapper gambler with a sensitive side. Nick, however, fails to acknowledge her feelings and frequently disappears on what she assumes to be "business" trips. Nick and Fanny have a passionate encounter in Baltimore, during which they both disclose their feelings for one another, and Fanny bravely decides to travel across the ocean to be with Nick. Nick's win of a fairly large sum of money led to the couple's decision to marry one another. Fanny's husband is becoming increasingly dissatisfied with her success in show business, but she has a stellar career as an entertainer and must pick between between him and him.

Do not miss out on this amazing experience. You can still get tickets, but doing, so before they sell out is strongly recommended.
