Set during the vaudeville era, Gypsy is about a relentless stage mother, Rose (Bernadette Peters), who travels the country with her two daughters, June (Kate Reinders) and Louise (Tammy Blanchard), and their manager, Herbie (John Dossett). While June and Louise wish their mother would settle down and marry Herbie, Rose continues to pursue dreams of stardom for her girls. When June deserts the act, Rose turns her attention to the shy Louise, whom she hopes to fashion into a star. When the act is booked into a burlesque house by mistake, Louise is forced into the spotlight and Gypsy Rose Lee is born.

Suggested by the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, this legendary musical features book by Arthur Laurents, music by Jule Styne and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Sam Mendes directs.
