Review: FUNNY GIRL at Orpheum Theatre
Whenever we prepare to see an older musical, there is a fear that it will be outdated and difficult to watch. Funny Girl has no such problems, as the message of self acceptance still stands up well today. It is the story of a Jewish girl's rise to fame, despite her homely looks, doing everything she can to ignore the opinions of thousands who say 'if a girl isn't pretty', they can't make it in show business.
