The Gypsy Broadway show is here in your city to enchant you with its bunch of striking performers! Opening on March 27, 2008, this show will make you revel in the magic of theatre. Originally produced in 1959, based on the book by Arthur Laurenta, this musical is marked with an intriguing storyline and terrific melodies.

The musical is produced by Roger Berlind, along with The Routh Frankel Baruch Viertel Group, including Roy Furman, Ted Hartley, Debra Black, Roger Horchow, Scott Rudin, David Ian, and Jack Viertel.

The story is based on a well-known striptease artist, Gypsy Rosa Lee. The musical focuses on Mama Rose, whose name has turned into a symbol of “the ultimate show business mother.” Mama Rose has a dream – she wants her daughters, June and Louise, to build their careers onstage and become big stars. The character of Louise is inspired by Lee, while the character of June is inspired by the actress June Havoc, who was Lee’s sister.

The songs of Gypsy Broadway musical are simply fabulous! Numbers like "You'll Never Get Away from Me," "Let Me Entertain You," "Small World," and “Everything’s Coming up Roses” are unforgettable. This musical is regarded as one of the highest achievements of the conventional music theatre art form of the mid-20th century. This form is known as “Book Musical.” This musical has been given the status of being one of the greatest American Musicals of all times by critics as well as writers. Out of them, Frank Rich has even stated it to be the answer of American musical theatre to ‘King Lear’!

These are some of the words of many famous critics on Gypsy Broadway musical - Clive Barnes wrote: "Gypsy is one of the best of musicals..." On the character of Rose, Barnes had this to say: "one of the few truly complex characters in the American musical...bossy, demanding, horrific…” Frank Rich has interpreted the character of Rose as “a monster.” According to Walter Kerr, though Rose is a monster, yet she deserves to be understood and liked.

When the critics are impressed, the show does go on to create history! And when this happens, you can hardly expect to get the tickets on the spur of the moment! Therefore, the best thing that you can do is call a ticketing service number and book your tickets well in advance. There are still a number of days to go till March 27, 2008. All you theatre fans out there- forget the box office! It becomes almost non-existent when a Broadway show breaks the boundaries of success. And with Gypsy Broadway show, the scenario is of double success. One is between the audience and the other is between the critics!

So, if you’re still without tickets, then you’re inviting disappointment at the last moment as you won’t get a single ticket at that time. Act fast, if you want to see the answer to ‘King Lear’!

Although the Gypsy Broadway musical arrived on March 3, the official date of opening of this show is March 27 at St. James Theatre. Are you ready?
