I never heard backstage rumors concerning "Funny Girl".
Only criticism I've heard is about what is on the stage of the August Wilson Theater

I was schooled on FB - by someone who did not see the show - that her work environment made it “impossible to continue.” No basis for that; the cast went on supportive record and she was cheered 8 times a week. I heard one; mid song applause. But my favorite this morning: “people are using her singing as an excuse. The criticism was really about her being a different body type.” Two people said that. The vocal critique was actually body shaming? This casting now inspires sheer mythology.

There will be a book or Vulture/Vanity Fair expose. But of course, the production’s story is far from over.
