CLUB CLEMANS at The Clemans Theater for the ARTS
717 FRANKLIN STREET CAPE MAY, NJ
Cape May has always been where Philadelphia goes for the summer.
In 2026, East Lynne Theater Company begins building a new artistic bridge between the two cities with the launch of its Philadelphia Summer Residency Series — a new chapter in the tale of two historic cities connected by a shared cultural life.
The series begins with FUNNY GIRLS, created and performed by Jennifer Childs — Producing Artistic Director of 1812 Productions and one of Philadelphia’s most celebrated comedic voices.
In this fast-paced solo performance, Childs celebrates the revolutionary women who transformed American comedy. With fearless wit and remarkable physical precision, she channels a gallery of legendary performers, bringing to life the comedic styles of icons such as Fanny Brice, Mae West, Phyllis Diller, Joan Rivers, Gilda Radner and others who helped redefine what women could do on stage and screen.
Following the success of last season’s blockbuster cabaret No Regrets: An Evening with Edith Piaf, which first introduced Club Clemans to Cape May audiences, FUNNY GIRLS continues that tradition — presented in the theater’s intimate cabaret setting, with musical direction by Owen Robbins.
