True. I had good seats when I saw her in October and when she hits the last note in I 'm the Greatest Star and everybody wildly applause I could see the immense joy on her face of the triumph of quite frankly BEING the greatest star, at least at that moment. I hope she has a great and long career that goes back and forth between tv movies and Broadway the way Kristen Chenowith has had so far but I truly believe this time in her life will be one of her fondest memories.
Most of us have always loved Funny Girl, because of Barbra or do we love Barbra because of Funny Girl! 🎵Now Michele takes her turn with this musical and makes it as beautuful!🎶 For Michele and the entire production!👏🏼👏🏼BRAVO!👏🏼👏🏼
I love this version! I saw a clip of Beanie doing this song and it was so disappointing. The staging wasn't as glamorous nor as funny. Lea seems to be hitting it out of the park with her (and the director's) interpretation of Fanny.
Ooh what a fun trivia! I wonder if Lea has had "collabs" with the other cast members and what their ideas were. I particularly would love to hear what she and Ramin specifically came up with for their scenes (if they did at all) or if the credit all goes to Mayer.
@@zolaxx4267 no one else has really said anything about it as far as i know. I know lea came up with climbing onto the piano in ‘greatest star’ She and tovah were allowed to ‘re-invent’ their characters so they got way more playing room than replacement actors usually get, but they havent said much about the specifics sadly. I want more behind the scenes stories haha
Who designed this production? Because it is atrocious, every clip I have seen just seems to go from bad to worse. Did the designer even research the period?
Did they transpose the key lower on the whole set up with the Emcee? Sounds like it, which is too bad. Makes it feel less ridiculous when it’s supposed to be over the top silly.
Agreed...boring, repetitive staging, too many gags, the jokes are tired and only barely land. The tempo is sluggish at best and it feels very mechanical. This is SUCH a dated show. I can't imagine how boring this must have been without Lea. Although they are trying SO hard to hold her back from adding ANY nuance that may remind the audience of La Streisand it might actually be holding the entire show back. Lea seems constrained and reticent to let go, making it feel like a Glee episode.
Lea has definitely got comedic skills! I knew she could do the songs, but I was pleasantly surprised at how funny she was! Best show I have ever seen!
She was hilarious in Glee
Lea was born for this. I am just so baffled they didn't cast her in the beginning. She would have won a tony. She is BRILLIANT
I agree
It was because she had just had Ever when they were casting. She had a difficult pregnancy.
I think this performance is absolutely brilliant. I laugh every time. Lea has the comedic chops!!
And Lea’s love for her role makes the show more beautiful ❤️

If they ever do a pro shot (and I hope they do) it will never compare to the joy this clip brought me!
"Christina, move" 😂😂😂
Man that guy can sing!! Like hello
I just saw this show last night in Broadway and I am speechless how wonderful it was ❤❤
So good. This was so funny in the theater. Thank you I can relive this moment everyday
I’m happy about it because I love Leann and even though I can’t go and actually see her for myself this definitely makes up for it.
Yes it was
This has a more glamourous look than previously; but I still think the set design really cramps your Ziegfield hopes. I like the turntable.
Ok but the movie is incredible!

Barbra hay una sola, inimitable, insuperable, única
OBRIGADA PELOS VÍDEOS!!!! Tô chorando
O vídeo foi gravado no meu aniversário e esse é meu musical favorito, obrigada pelo presente não intencional!

Is the clip of beanie still available?
I’m going to see this next Wednesday the 12th and am SO EXCITED
I love that Lea and Ephie were the ones who came up with literally pulling Lea across the stage 🤣
How you know?
@@magaencina2863 By knowing the cast
@@amazingstarzz i wish hahah she wrote it in a story during a take over

I love it.
The tenor, Daniel Beeman, is fantastic!!!!
this number needs to be restaged more like the movie, this version looks like a high school production,,,,,but I like lea in the role
Daniel Beeman sounds fantastic here. But he always does....
*HAND IT OVER* 🪦
Love this 🤣 she's so funny
Wonderful! I hope you have and upload "The Music That Makes Me Dance".
I believe it's here already. If not, check out her playlist. She has it there.

th-cam.com/video/XLm3uwhKLLs/w-d-xo.html
WOWWW... you have the whole show!??? Please PM me, I'd LOVE to get a copy from you!!!!!
Have you found it? :(
So basically, anyone named Lea is a broadway queen
You mean like Lea Solonga? Are there other big broadway stars named Lea?
Who designed this production? Because it is atrocious, every clip I have seen just seems to go from bad to worse. Did the designer even research the period?
We’ll all I can say is Lea’s performance was truly beautiful…
*JUST NOT TODAY*
Nice
3:18 is my favorite part
Please upload greatest star
It's already uploaded. If you can't find it on regular TH-cam, check out Michele's playlist on Premium.
Does the word "mugging" ring a bell?
Upload all songs please 😭 can you send me the videos for email please
They cut the winter, spring, summer, and autumn brides…..budget cuts?
Probably more about time.

It feels so low!
Michael Mayer does not know how to direct musicals.
for real what is this staging

Is there a slime tutorial?? Full?? Hahaha help
Don’t like the staging. The joke was the pillow in the tummy, but this was staged with too many gags that diluted the joke
Two words: Barbra Streisand.
very low budget
This is Broadway? Yikes
Lots of mugging the audience…. Meh.
