14The American musical by Isobela Lennartová, Jula Styn and Bob Merrill in Opava is directed by actor and director Roman Štolpa. "Funny girl is played by opera soloist Tereza Kavecká, guest Dita Hořínková from the Hybernia Theater in Prague, we help with colleagues from drama and ballet. It's an amazing collaboration with amazing people, the atmosphere is wonderful, "describes Roman Štolpa in the show Dobré ráno on Czech Television. The theme for Funny Girl was the true story of actress Fanny Brice, who worked in theaters in New York City before and after World War I, and her husband, Nick Arnstein. The musical became a big hit right after its premiere and had almost 1,400 reruns on Broadway. In 1968, his film version was created with the beginning actress Barbara Streisand, for whom it was the first musical role. She won her first Oscar for her role as Fanny. How is the Opava musical different from the original version? "It simply came to our notice then. We also have one specialty there, and that is that Funny girl will change into a Chaplin costume. I'm looking forward to the ladies coming on stage, having a mustache, big boots, a hat and making such a military grotesque, "said the director, who hopes he's kind to the actor:" Mostly I want to be an inspirer to work together. Of course, there are some things you have to make sure this is the case, especially when it's a musical. It's hard work, but otherwise I want to inspire people and come to a result together. "
