Loosely based on the memoirs of world-renowned striptease artist Gypsy Rose Lee, Gypsy follows the journey of the irrepressible Rose (Imelda Staunton, Harry Potter), the mother to end all stage mothers, as she balances the challenges of parenthood with the joys and heartbreaks of a life in the world of show business.

Featuring a collection of songs that have grown to become American standards, including "Together (Wherever We Go)," "Some People," "Let Me Entertain You," and "Everything's Comin' Up Roses," Gypsy is a true treasure of musical theatre... you'll have a real good time, yes sir!

It's the best of all possible worlds when Leonard Bernstein's Candide In Concert makes its Blu-ray debut on November 4th, 2016.

This extraordinary cast is accompanied by the New York Philharmonic, conducted by Marin Alsop.
