Lea Michele, the star of Funny Girl, ends her stay today in the Broadway revival. She noted the milestone with an Instagram post that touted the show’s recoupment of its $16.5 million capitalization.
“For the past year, I’ve had the honor and privilege of playing the iconic Fanny Brice in Funny Girl on the August Wilson Stage,” she wrote. “An opportunity my younger self could have only dreamed of. And did.”
The musical opened in April 2022 at the August Wilson Theatre, starring Beanie Feldstein in the title role of Fanny Brice. Although fans initially showed great enthusiasm and ticket-buying, critics and Tony Award nominators found her performance lackluster, and the production soon saw a drop-off in sales. Feldstein made an unusually public leaving of the show, and was immediately replaced by producers with Glee star Lea Michele, who had her own strong fan base and who wowed critics. Box office receipts surged.

Funny Girl has recouped its capitalization costs on Broadway, producers said Monday.
The musical, which originally opened at the August Wilson Theatre in April 2022, was capitalized for $16.5 million. The production, starring Lea Michele, is set to close on Broadway on Sept. 3. A North American tour, starring Katerina McCrimmon, will follow.
The production started with Beanie Feldstein in the leading role, but after she received mixed reviews, grosses and attendance began to fall. Feldstein was then replaced with Michele, who had already performed several of the songs on Glee and thus was a draw for audience members. However, Michele had to fight back against allegations of on-set bullying while on the television show as well as the controversy of taking over the role from Feldstein. She came into the production on Sept. 6, 2022, and was well-received in the role, and the box office began trending upward.

Escape to Margaritaville will blow out its final flip-flop at Broadway’s Marquis Theatre July 1, closing shy of the four-month mark after its official March 15 opening. The Jimmy Buffett jukebox musical is planning a 2019 national tour.
The parrothead tuner, directed by Christopher Ashley, featuring Buffett’s beachy, breezy, rum-heavy musical reveries and with an ensemble cast headed by Paul Alexander Nolan, has been among Broadway’s lesser performers since opening to buzz-harshing reviews. With no Tony nominations, Margaritaville has been playing in recent weeks to roughly half-full houses and taking grosses around the third of potential.
The closing was announced by producers Frank Marshall, Mindy Rich, Anita Waxman, and Beth Williams. With the Sunday, July 1 performance, the show will have played 29 previews and 124 regular performances.
July won’t be entirely Buffett-less, though: Buffett himself will appear with the Broadway cast on PBS’ live broadcast of A Capitol Fourth from the West Lawn of the U.
