Considered one of Broadway's all-time triumphs, Gypsy sets the memoirs of entertainer Gypsy Rose Lee to music, telling the story of ambitious showbiz mother Rose, who travels across the country in the 20's and 30's with her daughters June and Louise, in search of success with their homespun act. Directed by Valley favorite, Rusty Ferracane, Gypsy features many of the best-loved songs in the entire musical theater canon: "Some People," "Let Me Entertain You," "Together (Wherever We Go)," "Everything's Coming Up Roses," and "Rose's Turn."
Mama Rose has been played by many brilliant actresses over the years: Ethel Merman, Angela Lansbury, Tyne Daly, Bette Midler, Bernadette Peters, Patti LuPone, Imelda Staunton and now, Arizona's own Broadway star: Kelli James! Kelli James started her career as Eponine in the Original Broadway production of Les Miserables and was recently nominated for Best Director/Youth Musical ariZoni Award for her recent YouthWorks production of Les Miserables. She just announced that this will be her theatrical swan song, and watching rehearsals has given everyone goosebumps, so trust us when we say: you simply cannot miss it - in fact, we think you need to see it twice!
Music by Jule Styne, Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, Book by Arthur Laurents
