Lea Michele is Breathtaking in Funny Girl
The theater world was rocked back in September when it was announced that not only would Beanie Feldstein be departing the Broadway revival of Funny Girl early, but that her replacement would be none other than Glee alum and OBC Spring Awakening star, Lea Michele. I for one was over the moon. I have loved Lea Michele since I first saw her on Glee back in 2010; I know there are rumors of her being problematic on set, but I'm not here to talk about that. One thing that everyone can agree on in regard to Lea is her immense talent. Lea Michele as Rachel Berry in the fifth season of the Fox hit series Glee. In the later seasons of Glee, Michele's character, Rachel Berry, a self-proclaimed Barbra Streisand fan, won the role in a fictional Broadway revival. Over the course of season five we got to see and hear her perform hits from the show like I Am the Greatest Star, People, Who Are You Now?, You Are Woman, I Am Man, as well the title song Don't Rain On My Parade in season
