(BASKING RIDGE, NJ) -- Immerse yourself in the enchantment of Broadway at Sieminski Theater in Basking Ridge on May 12, 2024 with Fabulous Fanny: The Songs & Stories of Fanny Brice, starring Kimerly Faye Greenberg. This is a heartfelt solo show that brings to life the iconic tunes and fascinating story of Fanny Brice with wit and warmth. Showtime is 2:30pm.

Celebrated by critics and audiences alike, the show rekindles the vibrant spirit of Fanny Brice, whose legacy was first popularized by Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl. Greenburg's performance is a must-see for those who cherish the golden era of Broadway and the timeless humor of Fanny Brice.

Her performance, echoing Brice’s wit and theatrical flair, promises to captivate you with the legacy of one of the most revered figures in comedy, the Ziegfeld Follies, and beyond—a star of stage, recording, film, and radio, known for her 25-year tenure as the voice of “Baby Snooks.” Fanny's songs are a staple of the American Songbook and legends have covered her tunes like, "My Man" and "I'd Rather Be Blue Over You". Greenberg’s unmatched embodiment of Brice’s voice and mannerisms offers an immersive experience that will warm the entire family's hearts. Don’t miss this opportunity to witness a slice of theatrical history.
