Funny Girl, which tells the story of Fanny Brice's rise from being a tender, plain, stage-shy young teen to national stardom. It is based on the events in the life of the Ziegfeld Follies star just before, during, and after World War I. Her chronicle starts with her initial years in New York City's Lower East Side, where the teenager stumbles her way through burlesque and vaudeville while hoping to make it big despite being disparaged by her family and friends who claim she isn't pretty enough to be a star on stage. Additionally, it tells the tale of her romance with Nick Arnstein, a charming man about town who's appeal Fanny finds irresistible, and eventually, their subsequent failed union. The musical production at the Orpheum Theatre is jam-packed with unforgettable music that viewers have come to expect from something of this caliber, and it features several show-stopping songs like "People" and "Don't Let It Rain on My Parade."
