Gypsy Jan 7 matinee WOW!

I know that there have been countless Gypsy threads, and I in no way am trying to write a review. I just wanted to briefly express how moved I was by this wonderful performance. I saw the show last spring and loved it, but this performance was exceptional.

The electric chemistry shared by this entire cast is inspirational, and everyone was at the top of their game. I had heard that Laura had been sick, if she was , youd never know it.

Being a huge Patti fan perhaps I am biased, but I found her performance exceptional. I was kind of worried that being a wednesday matinee,that she may have held back a bit, but how wrong was I to worry about that. She really hit it right out of the park, and I was amazed how Roses Turn has evolved since I saw it last.

It was amazing to see the look on everyones faces, particulary Patti's during curtain call. You could feel the emotions that I suspect the cast is feeling knowing the show is closing on Sunday.

I will greatly miss this production , and feel so priveliged to have seen it. I am so sad they are not taping it. All the best to all involved in this great production.

GREAT review Thank you.

I could only tell Laura was sick because she coughed once. She seemed fine otherwise. Boyd Gaines started off his first line in "Small World" with a coughing fit so bad he could barely get his lines out, but he didn't seem too sick either.

I saw it last night.

Still completely in awe. I'll need a few days before I can put it into words. If they're filming THIS is the time to do it.

I was on the Rush line with Michael Burbach. We were wearing the same jacket.

I feel so lame for saying this, but I am honestly devastated that I wasn't able to see this show. It's my favorite, and I greatly admire Patti LuPone (well...I do now) and Laura Benanti. I HATE living in California.

I was there, too. There was so much energy and so much emotion on stage throughout the performance. I had seen this at City Center, but that was only a pale shadow of what is on stage now. And a shout out for Tony Yazbeck, who I thought was super-fine in "All I Need is the Girl."

They aren't going to tape it - darn! The taping that was done was a stationary camera for Lincoln Center archives.

That's the point, Broadwayfanatic, it's supposed to be repeated and annoying, but also funny.

I have to say, the strobe light effect never gets old. I love it so much. It was ruined slightly by the fact that I was sitting as far right as I could and I could see older June in the wings, getting ready to go on...but still. Love it.

Name, stop being silly. Merman and Klugman were in a show called GYPSY. This person is talking about something called "Gyspy"
