Funny Girl at Academy of Music

Fanny Brice is the central character of this story and is not supposed to be "pretty," but she shines in a way that is sensational. Her voice, comedic ways, graceful charms, elegant hands, and eyes that penetrate with burning stares through the soul are the stuff legends are made of.

Her narrative begins in her irrepressible young days on New York's Lower East Side, where the stage-struck teenager feels her way through burlesque and vaudeville. Fanny is a smart one; she has an excellent voice, big dreams and knows she can make it despite being put down by friends and family.

At some point, Fanny's heart is instantly taken by Nick Arnstein, a handsome and charming gambler with a softer side. Her only hinderence is that Nick is unaware of her feelings and regularly leaves town on "business" trips. Nick and Fanny finally admit their feelings for one another after an intense encounter in Baltimore, and Fanny daringly leaves to run after Nick across the ocean.

The couple happily marries after Nick wins a bankroll. But no thing good lasts for long, and Fanny must choose between her brilliant show business career and her husband, who is starting to hate her accomplishments. This is one hell of a story that certainly shouldn't be missed. Purchase your tickets, right here before it is too late.
