Lea Michele wraps her time on Broadway's 'Funny Girl' this weekend and shared a post on her Instagram Story on Sunday where she called the experience the 'role of a lifetime'
On Sunday, the actress, 37, shared a lengthy message on her Instagram Story, toasting her time as Fanny Brice in the Broadway musical before her last performance at the August Wilson Theatre this weekend.
"The role of a lifetime. For the past year," Michele began her post, which was broken up into two slides on her Story. "I've had the honor and privilege of playing the iconic Fanny Brice on the August Wilson stage. An opportunity my younger self could have only dreamed of. And did." "I've always felt a deep love and connection to this story, and to Fanny, a remarkable woman who relentlessly blazed a trail in the entertainment industry. Somehow her essence has continuously been there serving as inspiration and motivation throughout the most pivotal corners of my life," she added.
Michele then took a moment to reflect on where the role has brought her today, to "the final curtain close of what was a truly exceptional chapter of my life." "Fanny Brice has been [a part] of my career from the very beginning and no words can describe what it has meant for me to play this role on Broadway and make it my own," Michele wrote. "This experience has been filled with some of the most incredible accomplishments and challenging moments that I have such deep appreciation and gratitude for.
