Gypsy is the landmark Broadway musical about a domineering mother in the early 20th Century who will do anything to make her young daughters Vaudeville stars. Inspired by the early life of stripper Gypsy Rose Lee, this new production is directed by George C. Wolfe and choreographed by Camille A. Brown, and is the musical that introduced the hit songs “Everything’s Coming Up Roses,” “Let Me Entertain You,“ and “You Gotta Get a Gimmick.”
"Audra will knock your socks off! Her final number alone is worth the cost of admission, and Danny Burstein is amazing as well. The entire cast gives a fine ensemble performance. The sound balance was a bit off - Audra was over-mic-ed, I think. She has such a big voice anyway that she needs minimal mic-ing, IMHO.
The vocal blend of the young Louise and June in their duets was superb. "Baby June" was a bit too one-dimensional and cliche-ish, even for a child performer. She seemed angry all the time, even though she got all of Mama Rose's attention initially. These are small quibbles, however in an otherwise outstanding production. DO go see it!"

Audra is nothing short of a mind-blowing revelation
"This was my 4th Broadway show and it’s hands-down the BEST ONE YET!!! I’d been wanting to Danny Burstein and Audra McDonald for several years and when I saw Audra’s IG announcement last May I knew this was the opportunity of a lifetime. Audra, Danny, Joy, Jordan and the entire rest of the cast lived up to every expectation I was hoping for. I’ve loved “Gypsy” since I first saw the 1962 film version with Rosalind Russell and Natalie Wood and it’s taken the last 28 years since then to see it on stage… it was definitely worth the wait as this is the definitive Gypsy production. Well, done!!"

Touching Story
"Audra MacDonald’s voice and acting blew me away. But one person doesn’t make a great show, and backing her up is a wonderful, talented cast acting out a rich, innuendoed story where there are no villains or heroes, but only people we care about trying hard to lead good lives. Beautiful. "

Excellent show
"Great show, great cast. There was a lot more singing than I expected. It was quite operatic with all the extended emotional moments and they really hit.
We saw Audra in Fankie and Johnny at the Claire de Lune, she was great in that, but her voice is next level."

A classic is given new, vibrant life
"I have known Gypsy as a beloved show for decades, but this production breathes new life into a classic Broadway masterwork - maybe THE classic of all time. Audra stands tall in her unique interpretation of the complex Rose, acting and singing every possible nuance, leading us powerfully to the inevitable, heartbreaking conclusion. Danny Burstein is a terrific, sincere Herbie, Joy Wood is a wonderful, sensitive Louise, and they contrast so eell angaint ghe force that is Mama Rose. The direction is superb with the set, costumes, choreography, and full orchestra providing the perfect picture frame for this tragic but beautiful family portrait."

Audra IS the Show
"Her performance was quite credible and most empathetic. The production was balanced and many nuances were found to make this production a most enjoyable one. It is soooo good to here this score; I have always considered Gypsy to be one of the best musicals written."
