Gypsy – 19 May to 30 September

Auditorium

Book by Arthur Laurents

Music by Jule Styne

Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

Suggested by The memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee

Original Production by David Merrick & Leland Hayward

Originally directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins

Gypsy is one of the greatest and most dazzling of all musicals. Based on the tantalising memoir of famous burlesque artist Gypsy Rose Lee, it tells the story of ambitious showbiz mother Rose, who travels across America with her daughters, Baby June and Louise, in search of success with their homemade vaudeville act.

When Baby June leaves the act to elope, Rose vows to make introverted Louise into a star, and will do almost anything to see her daughter break into the big time.

Prepare to fall in love again with iconic songs, including Some People, Let Me Entertain You, and the show-stopping Everything’s Coming Up Roses.

GYPSY is presented by arrangement with CONCORD THEATRICALS LTD on behalf of TAMS-WITMARK LLC
