GYPSY would be totaly appropiate for a 7 year old it's a great intro for musical theatre.
There will be a fair amount of plot that goes over the head of a 7 year old, but the music will be easy to like -
Heck I'm 35 and don't know if I could sit through Gypsy.
that's sad; you're missing out.
Raise 'em up to appreciate something good from an early age.
So many people grow up morons because they only watched/read crap as a child.
There's nothing terrible in the show that will damage your child for life, but your money would be wasted because there whole thing will just go over the kid's head.
