Funny Girl 2022 Revival — Page 22

Is anyone else struggling to enter the promo code? There is no place for me to enter it.

I just hope she has a big, commanding voice. I'm not into these "actors that can sing" (Looking at you "Company"

Running the risk of booking a Wednesday evening - last thing I need is a "she only does matinees on two-show days" - but it's what works best with me and my partner's schedules. That's a hell of a cast!

Nope!

I hope she has a schedule like Adrienne or Lauren/Laura and does 6 shows a week.

If they are open, go for it. But, SeekGeek is the WORST so they may insist you use their website with that promo code. Worth a try!

Wow, I thought her voice would be stronger, but in this performance it’s very nasally and indistinct.

Yea that performance was any girl singing karaoke. Nothing interesting about it.

Why couldn't they get like Sara Bareilles. She'd knock it out.

The amount of women who could blow the roof off the Wilson with this show and this is what we get? I'll wait to hear the reviews, but I'm just so over this "She acted the song" crap. Like, give me vocals. We deserve it. I saw Company, she was a fine actress, but her big songs were let downs because the vocals just weren't there. It's Broadway. We can have both.

1. She’s lip-syncing to a pre-recording.

2. Singing live and projecting to an audience is completely different. This video was done for an intimate tight shot on a close camera. That natural singing voice WAS intentional. She wasn’t “performing” it full out to the balcony.

3. She, like everyone who’d be singing the FUNNY GIRL score, will be getting more vocal coaching prior to the start of rehearsals. Even LuPone gets vocal coaching, which is why she’s never lost her voice.

Honestly! Do people on a Broadway message board really think actors don't do any work for their roles? Jesus...

Thank you so much for mansplaining that to us. However, every single one of her videos online sounds exactly like that. And that was her voice "pre-recorded" so................

I hope the vocal coaches completely change and improveher voice and she is amazing for all to enjoy!"

I think it's fairly obvious she will not give us the vocals we expect for Funny Girl. But I do think that what we'll hear will be the result of further coaching and work. Time will tell!
