:::Gypsy:::
book by Arthur Laurents, Music by Jule Styne, Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Sugested by the momoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, America's most celebrated stripper
This show has briliant music, ans lyrics, being written by some of the best musica writers of all time, however the book leaves a bit to be desired, it's quite stilted. But the show is great and besed on a very interesting lady's life. I read the memoirs and they are great. I would recomend them for anyone to read.
This show is what i clasify as the first show where I wasnt a complete retard, and was, therefore, much more fun! There were so many people in this show that I really liked and very few i didnt, which was good! Daisy was also in this as Baby June, her first lead and the one she got a CAT nomination for. Dad was in this one too.
No synopsis in the programme again and I couldnt be b othered writing one. If you want to know the story read the book.
