Beanie Feldstein To Star In The Broadway Revival Of Funny Girl

Beanie Feldstein is headed to Broadway! The young actress is set to star in the Broadway revival, Funny Girl, as the lead Fanny Brice.

For those who don’t know, Funny Girl follows the bittersweet story of Fanny Brice, whose unique comedic and vocal talent helps her rise from young Brooklyn music hall performer to star, and her tempestuous relationship with gambler Nicky Arnstein.

Beanie spoke about joining the revival in a recent press release. She stated, “The first time I played Fanny Brice was at my third birthday party, in a head-to-toe leopard print outfit my mom made for me. ‘So, it’s safe to say that stepping into this iconic role, on Broadway and not in my family’s backyard, is truly my lifelong dream come true. I am immensely grateful to be able to do so alongside such a remarkable creative team, and cannot wait for audiences to get back in theaters again!”

Production is set to begin in Spring of 2022.

Congrats to Beanie! She is going to be awesome in this role.
