Songs Cut from the Broadway Musical
Only one song is specifically identified as being cut from the stage production:

---|---|---|
Temporary Arrangement | Funny Girl Broadway Musical | Originally written for Nick Arnstein, it was removed during out-of-town tryouts before the show premiered on Broadway. |
Status in the Film Adaptation
While "Temporary Arrangement" was cut from the Broadway play, it was later retooled and included in the 1968 film adaptation of Funny Girl. Jule Styne and Bob Merrill reworked the song, adding an introduction, for the movie where it was performed by Omar Sharif. Therefore, it was not a cut song from the film; rather, it was adapted and featured in the cinematic version.
