Wow. They can't even pay for an official website?

It's a small non equity tour. What do you expect!?
Missy will be amazing. I got to the finals for Louise... got cut.. then came back to audition again when they needed an understudy and I got cut because I was too short lol. I guess I shrank in 3 months he he. Hope the tour goes well though! I love Gypsy!!
Is there a connection between this tour and the Sam Mendes/Bernadette Peters version? They seem to be using the same logo.

I believe it's based on the Mendes revival.
i think they have some of the sets? I could be very very wrong though...
How come it doesn't say what cities they're visiting?
What are they using for song samples? It's not showing up in my computer.
I think at auditions they said something about opening in Ohio? Maybe it's changed. But, I do know that most stops are one nighters.
i know there going to melbourne fl,
They'll be in Champaign, IL
Thanks, harris! The FL stops are the ones I'm mostly interested in.
i'd be shocked if there not going,where u are, if they hit melbourne they hit g-ville

This show deserves a real professional outing - starring Lorna Luft, for example.
Bogus.

Sarasota and Clearwater also, in December.
Harris, I checked the Philip Center schedule and GYPSY is not on the list so I guess they're not coming to Gainesville
If they go anywhere near here I may be able to convince someone to drive me there to see it.
Thanks for yet another misleading thread title!
How was it misleading? It's pretty clear.
How could it have been clearer???
Wiz, loving the new avatar.

Lorna Luft played Rose (beautifully) here as a guest artist in a college production here in Richmond, VA.

The Louise looks great!

But I'm going to be a little nervous to see this tour after what I experienced at City Center. I just don't feel I'll find anything to match that experience now.
They list 6 musicians for this tour. Will they employ extra musicians in each city to fill out the size of the orchestra? Or will they deploy canned musicians ("Virtual Orchestra")?
Leading Actor Joined: 8/4/07
If there's really only 6 musicians mixed with virtual music, I MAY have to pass on this. I don't think I can stomach listening to GYPSY played like that.
I do hope they employ musicians in each city.
