FUNNY GIRL

WEB-STREAM EVENT: LIVE AT THE HAT

As part of our Radical Access Program we have always offered FREE web-streams of our minastage shows thanks to our amazing RA Donors. And now we are taking things a step further! In addition to the performance archival being available to watch on our YouTube all weekend long, we invite our community to join us in person for the premiere of each web-stream.


She's the greatest star! With humour, talent and chutzpah, Fanny Brice, an awkward Jewish girl who "isn't pretty," defies the odds and becomes a superstar of vaudeville, radio and Hollywood.


From one of our most successful "Confidential Musical Theatre Projects" comes to life in a vibrant fullĀ  production with a full cast, live band, and all local talent. In the Ziegfeld Follies, Fanny Brice was one of the most celebrated entertainers of her time. Fanny's rise to super-stardom and her turbulent romance with gambler Nick Arnstein are explored through Bob Merrill and Jule Styne's unforgettable score, which includes "Don't Rain On My Parade", "People", and "I'm the Greatest Star".


Come see the role that made Barbara Streisand a star in the first ever Cape Breton production!
