    I just saw the show in Los Angeles. A star is born in Katerina McCrimmon. She is absolutely phenomenal. The whole cast is so talented. The choreography is the best ive seen in a Broadway show . Actually this was the best musical production ive ever seen. Katerina has the best voice for this commanding role. Bravo Katerina.

      I’m going to the Philadelphia show in July with my daughters. My dear Mother loved Funny Girl. I grew up with it. I want my grown daughters to see this with me, in memory of my dear Mother. I’m going to tear through out, lol.

    Ahmanson Theater, Los Angeles last week. One of the best shows, top three; 35 year+ season ticket holder. Thank you for bringing Funny Girl to LA.

    Saw it a few hours ago at Ahmanson Theater, Los Angeles with Fanny understudy Hanna Shankman -- absolutely terrific! Great tap dancing, Melissa Manchester, Eileen T'Kaye... Long live Broadway

    I saw this show on broadway in February, and it was so worth it, I nearly cried after the show, the whole cast was incredible, and it if the show comes to a city near you, I definitely recommend!

    I just saw the show in Costa Mesa today! The new Fanny is a standout. But Melissa Manchester steals the show in terms of delivering verbal humor! Three viewings of the movie payed off! I like a classic musical almost as I do with contemporary titles!

      I hate that Melissa Manchester was not there
      Her understudy was great but sure missed her

      Update: It was spectacular. I was blown away by the entire cast. Huge congrats and brava to Ms. Katerina McCrimmon. Her voice is like butta, she's oozing with moxie and chutzpah. I hope to see her again in the future.

    I said the entire time, find new talent! Putting evil people like LM in positions of power is the worst thing you can do. There is TONS of talent out there and we need new stars! Excellent work Katerina!

      After baring through the first 3 seasons of Glee, I see what you mean. Lea’s singing voice is the only saving grace of hers.

    I like how the “why should you tell Fanny’s story” question = “why should you tell Fannys story after lying about being Jewish during the audition process” ☠️

      Maybe she didn't lie maybe she was the right person for the job. Maybe you are a racist. Oops a cuban girl was the best person to play a Jewish character!

    It's uncomfortable seeing a non-Jewish person play a real historical Jewish woman whose Judaism plays such a big part in the role.

      @williesullivan3985 Před 9 měsíci +10

      I am so sick of people saying that her Judaism plays such a big role in the show. It doesn't! Not ONE LINE in the libretto talks about Judaism. The Fanny Brice in Funny Girl is much more connected to her Brooklyn roots than Jewish ones.

      Also, again, she existed in the real world. And she was Jewish. If they want to cast someone who isn’t Jewish they should cut that song, I’ve seen so many people talk about how uncomfortable it makes them to witness.

    She’s totally wrong for this part which is about a Jewish girl from Brooklyn. A lot of people have great voices. I hope they find a replacement by the time this gets to the Northeast.

    Katerina is an amazing performer but I had to walk out because I was incredibly uncomfortable with seeing a Non-Jewish actress basically perform a minstrel act with the yiddish accent and all the exaggerated yiddish-isms and theres nothing more disturbing seeing so many people validate such a genuinely offensive casting
