FUNNY GIRL 2022 New Broadway Cast Recording Thread
 Nov 18 2022, 12:27:17 AM
I got goosebumps all over listening to the album, especially the last song, Finale Act 2. I just adore the way Lea shouts out “That’s life in the theatre.” It’s marvelous.

Wow! Every word in my post is clearly…

You speak, the world listens. Kind of like the wedding in the Hamptons. That was you, too, wasn't it? Could be prophetic. I love it, keeps life interesting.laugh

This one is too logistically possible: Netflix has filmed live performances and Ryan Murphy’s projects for them are globally successful plus he’s close pals with Lea - even owning the rights to FUNNY GIRL at one point, so it’s all logical.

So I want to stay cautiously positive. Also I think they didn’t record Beanie’s version intentionally. I mean can you imagine the amount of criticism Beanie was gonna receive if they released her whole performance for the world to see…That would just be brutal and not good for the show.

Had to create an account so I can come here to say this: Has anyone watched Lea’s Cornet Man clip? Her voice in this song is soooooo satisfying. The belting seems so perfect and effortless. 
Also, is it rare that a Broadway show makes a cast recording with a replacement but not the opening lead? I’m only asking this because being an International fan during this COVID pandemic, it’s almost impossible for me to travel to NYC to see Lea live and a cast recording is m
