Adding to the love!
I saw it Monday and LOVED it, and came home and ordered tickets to see it 2 more times.
AH, I LOOOOVE IT! I can't wait to see it again!
People on ATC are saying they cut parts of ROSE'S TURN. Is that true?
I hope not.
They didn't cut any part of Rose's Turn - Patti skipped around a little last night and cut a section by accident. There were a couple technical problems and missed cues last night, nothing to get all riled up about.
Most of the cuts I was like "wait a second wasn't that supposed to be..." but the Rose's Turn... cut is weird.
I could NOT for the life of me tell you what it is that is gone because both times I've seen it I've been too busy flipping out because Patti is so amazing.
BUT there is always a moment in the song when the music in my head is one place and Patti is another and it gives me a jolt, so something is for sure missing.
I know that sounds stupid that I can't remember what it is but I just get so sucked in.
I'll keep an ear out for any changes when I see it again tonight.
Ditto. (Eventually, I'm going to get sick of the show. Really.)
Eh, it's only playing for three weeks. That's not nearly enough time to make ya sick of something.
My family thinks I'm crazy for buying tickets for tonight when I just saw the show two days ago but I don't care!

The cut struck me at the time but was wiped out of my memory by the end. I think it was the "Ready or not, here comes Mama" part?
I thought about putting my Patti photo back as my avatar just for the run of the show, but I look too damn fat in it!
I understand the "Hold your hats and hallelujah/Mama's gonna show it to ya" was cut.

I already saw GYPSY at its first preview. I'm so very blessed to be able to see it three more times before it ends its limited run.
Viva LuPone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Calvin, just put any picture of LuPone in your avatar.
We must honor this great lady and her astronomical achievement during the run of this show.
Here we go. With a Sondheim bonus. I'll give Pinky a rest for the duration of the run.
""I understand the "Hold your hats and hallelujah/Mama's gonna show it to ya" was cut.""
YES YES YES THAT'S IT!
And then like the music that comes right after.
Since the run is so brief maybe we should have a meet and greet before/after show?
I'll be there the 21st for the nite performance. Anyone wanna say hi, PM me.
I'm seeing it again tonight too! I can't get enough of it!
That's right -- they went straight to the "here comes Mama" part.
Oohh yeah. I wonder why they did that.

I'll be there this Friday and again on the 29th. There's one more performance I'll attend, but the tickets haven't been purchased pending my friend's availability.
I'm willing to meet and greet.
I'll probably be there Friday (I'm taking tomorrow night off, I swear!). I have tix for Monday and then the 19th, and we'll see when else.

Shall we meet BEFORE the performance? My emotional state can't be predicted after the first or second acts.

I went last night and there's a chance I'm going back tomorrow night. People think I'm insane. I was kind of surprised how easy it was to get tickets, though. I went and bought a front gallery ticket (all I can afford) at 4:30 and got second row.
Easy to get tickets for now, lol. I bought a fourth row orchestra ticket for tonight.
If it's on TKTS then I plan on going Friday night. Going to be taking my Mom who's a big fan of Gypsy and of Ms. LuPone.
Tonight. Row L. Center.
How will I get through the day?
