Lady Bird and beyond

Theatre kid for life

Despite being all over the film and television parts of the entertainment Industry, Beanie *always* has loved theatre. She made her Broadway debut in 2017 playing Minnie Fay in the Hello, Dolly! revival. If you were lucky enough to see her fab performance, you know her singing is just as good as her acting.

Friends are forever

Being a theatre kid isn't hard when you're surrounded by fellow amazing artists. In Los Angeles, Beanie attended high school with many other ~super~ creative students, such as Ben Platt, who quickly became her best friend after they initially met. The two are still friends over a decade later. (BFF goals!)

Great sapphic representation

Beanie has been extremely open about her queer sexuality and relationship with her girlfriend, Bonnie Chance Roberts, who is a producer. The couple can be seen walking red carpets together, as well as gushing over each other on Instagram. Srsly, can they get any cuter?

Back to Broadway

All theatre fanatics know how long-awaited the Funny Girl revival has been. Finally, in the spring of 2022, the revival will happen and will be starring Beanie Feldstein as Fanny Brice! It was a *big* toss-up and huge debate as to who would get the role, but we could not be happier that it was given to Beanie! So well deserved!
