Funny Girl Auditions: Saturday, March 14 & Sunday, March 15

About the Show.
Hello, Gorgeous! Welcome to Musical Theatre Comedy Heaven. This bittersweet comedy is the story of the indomitable Fanny Brice, a girl from the Lower East Side who dreamed of a life on the stage. Everyone told her she’d never be a star, but then something funny happened –she became one of the most beloved performers in history, shining brighter than the brightest lights of Broadway. Fanny’s rise to superstardom is explored through Bob Merrill and Jule Styne’s unforgettable score, which includes “I’m the Greatest Star,” “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” and “People.”

Audition Dates. Saturday, March 14 and Sunday, March 15 from 2 – 6 pm. If you are out of town/unavailable for auditions and callbacks but available for the production, you may submit a tape by submitting materials to productions@diamondheadtheatre.org.
