Funny Girl


Funny Girl, Menier Chocolate Factory, 2015.

Cast: Sheridan Smith, Natasha J Barnes, Luke Fetherston, Gay Soper, Valda Aviks, Marilyn Cutts, Joel Montague, Maurice Lane, Matthew Croke, Rebecca Fennelly, Emma Caffrey, Darius Campbell, Stuart Ramsey, Bruce Montague, Sammy Kelly, Joelle Dyson, Leah Harris, Kelly Homewood.

Music: Jule Styne
Lyrics: Bob Merrill
Book: Isobel Lennart revised by Harvey Fierstein
Director: Michael Mayer

I've spent so long overthinking Sheridan Smith that I've convinced myself I didn't like anything she's ever been in, so I'm not going to think about this any more. I wish the Menier would get its groove back - it's a lovely theatre and I've seen some great things there and want to again.
