Funny Girl at Ahmanson Theatre

She is the biggest star and the nicest people person on the planet. Fanny Brice's story starts with her young days in New York's Lower East Side, where the star-struck young girl fluffs her way through burlesque and vaudeville, wanting to make it big despite being put down by her friends and family, who tell her she isn't beautiful enough for the stage. Fanny, with her awesome voice and unshakable conviction, knows better than to listen to the nay sayers. As the story moves forward Fanny falls for Nick Arnstein, a handsome and charismatic gambling man with a gentle side, the the moment she sets her eyes on him. And, with her big break in the Ziegfeld Follies on the horizon, the stardom she's always lusted after is finally within reach. Her only problem is that the enigmatic Nick Arnstein, who is totally unaware of her feelings for him, is constantly leaving town on some kooky venture. Nick and Fanny finally confess their feelings after a romantic meeting in Baltimore, and Fanny boldly abandons the Follies to follow Nick across the ocean. The couple happily marries after Nick wins a bankroll. But nothing good lasts forever, and Fanny must decide between her brilliant show business career and her husband, who is starting to hate her success. This is one hell of a story that surely shouldn't be missed. Purchase your tickets right here before it is too late.
