Thanks for the code. We just scored 4 tickets Orchestra Center Row F for a week in late April at $199 a pop (excluding fees) which in today’s world is UNHEARD of. These will be priced at Premium Seat prices later on. Same thing happened with my Midler/HELLO, DOLLY! tickets - Orchestra Center Row D at $189 the day they went on sale and were later Premium Seat priced.

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

Go to SeatGeek.com. Search FUNNY GIRL.

There is no link on the show’s website. You need to go to SeatGeek.com.

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!

Has been there any talks of whether or not they’d be incorporating the songs from the movie into stage? Or stick to the stage version?

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

Does anyone know if you can use the code at the Wilson box office? I'd like to skip the fees if I can.

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!

Yeah, thanks for the video reference. I'm gonna sit this one out. Especially if it's the same bad staging from London.

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

All of her performances are nasal because that's how she sings. I don't know if this score is difficult to sing as Ive never seen this show, but I hope they have a strong understudy and announce Beanie's performance schedule in the coming months.

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.

Yeah,  I can sing like that... that's why I chose Finance as a profession, but love the karaoke parties. I really hoped for someone whose voice makes the hair on your arms raise, but I'm going open minded. Amazing cast should help.

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.

Fax! It's the greatest theater district in America. We can and should have both for these prices.

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 improve her 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!
