The colorful Gypsy Robe, embellished with mementos from Broadway musicals, is presented to the cast member who has the most Broadway chorus credits. For Sweet Charity, the Gypsy Robe was presented to Dylis Croman whose previous credits include Oklahoma!, Thou Shalt Not and Fosse. Sweet Charity opened on Wednesday night, May 4, 2005 at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.

Meet Charity Hope Valentine. She's a true original, an eternal optimist...and the unluckiest romantic in New York City. Emmy Award winner Christina Applegate stars in a dazzling new Broadway production of this smash hit musical. Directed by Walter Bobbie (a Tony Award winner for Broadway's runaway hit Chicago) and choreographed by Wayne Cilento (Wicked, Aida), Sweet Charity has a hilarious book by none other than Neil Simon. And the classic score (by Cy Coleman and Dorothy Fields) features such hits as "Hey, Big Spender" and "If My Friends Could See Me Now." Swing on by the Fandango ballroom...and let Charity dance her way into your heart!
