I really wish Company had run for years and we could've seen her as Joanne. And I wish we could've seen her do Lovett in Sweeney.

I think Amy Adams would make a good Mama Rose in a film adaptation (God knows she needs a good film project).

It sounds like you approached Audra's Rose with impenetrable preconceived notions about how that character should be played, instead of engaging with that performance on it's own terms. And yes, people who listened to a bootleg have largely dominated the conversation surrounding this performance. So much so, that the production has told the staff to be really super serious about phones being out during the show. It is IN MY OPINION (apparently we must make that very clear here) that A

This is what I'm thinking. I could see Sunset winning direction too.

His opinion simply differs from your own. Shockingly, that's still allowed in America today."
This adds nothing to the conversation. Go away. Stop opinion policing.

Respectfully, this isn't even slightly true.
I think Nicole is successful and interesting within that show, but I need us to be so serious here. When those two performances are looked at side by side, it's obvious who is giving the more interesting, layered, complex performance and it'

Both are fantastic, but I think Audra is on a whole other level, sorry. Audra for the win.

A Gaga Rose would be amazing in like 10-15 years. If there's any role that I think she would be amazing in, it's this one.

Audra is the only Rose that's actually managed to bring tears to my eyes during Rose's Turn. She approaches the role with a whole new point of view that completely recontextualizes a lot of Rose's choices and her overall objective. She's delusional, sure, but with Audra, that delusion is tragic. She's our current Rose and I'd like to say, as someone who actually saw her performance and didn't just listen to a first preview bootleg, she's absolutely fantastic in

Judy is the correct answer. She should've done the film. I think she would've been definitive.

There's been a lot of criticism for Audra's more classical voice, but I actually think her voice sounds more accurate to the time period (not that I'm looking for period accuracy in Gypsy, really. I like some anachronism).

Finally saw Gypsy this afternoon.
I thought this was a pretty perfect production of maybe the greatest musical ever written. A super tight show in it's construction. Those 3 hours flew by. That text is written with the richness of a Tennessee Williams' play. Audra's performance here is legendary, and more layered than some of the other Roses we've seen. She's much more sympathetic and tragic. I finally understand the King Lear comparison. I loved Joy and D

The understudies might also be sick, which would explain the multiple cancelations. Hope everyone gets well soon. I had tickets Monday, but I'll grab a ticket for sometime next weekend when everyone is back and healthy and on their A game. I can't imagine the kind of hell it would be to try to perform this show with the flu or covid.
