“Don’t tell me not to live, just sit and putter!”
The songs. The spectacle. Babs. Even if you’re not a Broadway fan, you have certainly heard of FUNNY GIRL! William Wyler’s iconic musical, the beloved romance that earned Barbra Streisand an Academy Award for Best Actress and made her into a star, celebrates its 55th anniversary next year. Based on the life of comedienne Fanny Brice, Wyler’s adaptation explores the entertainer’s illustrious life, from her career as a Ziegfeld Follies girl to her romance with gambler Nicky Arnstein (Omar Sharif).
In partnership with Kaiserman JCC, PJFM is delighted to bring FUNNY GIRL back to the screen for a special, one-time brunch and film screening. Come hungry, happy, and ready to sing your heart out!
