Description
In this enduring musical classic, overbearing stage mother Rose is determined to get her younger daughter June into big time vaudeville. However, unwilling to tolerate her mother’s ruthless manipulations, June elopes with a dancer. Rose then turns all of her attention on her older and less talented daughter Louise. Soon after transforming her into a star burlesque stripper known as Gypsy Rose Lee, ‘Mama’ Rose begins to realize that she is no longer needed in her famous daughter’s life.
Based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, music by Jule Styne, lyrics by Stephen Sodheim, book by Arthur Laurents
