Jane Lynch, Ramin Karimloo and Jared Grimes will join the previously announced Beanie Feldstein  in the upcoming Broadway revival of Funny Girl<\/em>, the Michael Mayer-directed production set to begin previews at the August Wilson Theatre this spring.<\/p>\n

“I grew up to the Broadway cast album of Funny Girl<\/em>,” said the five-time Emmy-winning Lynch, who will play the role of Mrs. Rosie Brice, mother to Feldstein’s Fannie Brice. “My mother and I knew every breath of that record and would sing it together at the top of our lungs. I am thrilled beyond words to be playing Fanny’s mother on Broadway. And somewhere in Heaven my Mom is asking, ‘Who taught her everything she knows?’”<\/p>\n

Lynch, best known for her role in Glee, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel <\/em>and as host of The Weakest Link<\/em>.<\/p>\n
