Jaystarr's 10/10 Report on LuPONE GYPSY (with stage door photos) — Page 2

It's always so great to read your reviews. I saw the show last Wednesday and had a great time. It was my first experience with Gypsy and I loved it. The cast is fabulous and "Gotta Get a Gimmick" had me rolling.

Have fun next weekend!!!

^^ I think theyre parents wait for them at the stage door. I did not see any cab or limo, everyone just walked home including Laura Benanti.

BTW- I mentioned to Laura that I am friends with divarobbie2 (Robbie Rosselle) and she was so nice and sweet to me..fyi- she loves gay guys!

Actually I was sitting next to the Mother of Little June's understudy...The mother was soo excited bec. this was her first time. Its so cute... she was singing to her that line from Let Me Entertain You while her daughter is performing and after she did that kick and split... the mother clapped right away and everyone followed her.. It was soo nice to sit next to a real Mama Rose!

So glad you loved it, Jay!

As always, thanks for posting your review and photos!

a. Overture

b. Tulsa's number All I Need is the Girl which I think was brilliant. He was dancing while the Orchestra was playing on the background.

c. Part of Rose Turn.

e. Curtain Call.

What happened to d?

Jay you always write the best reviews! Thanks for taking the time to write this. I am very excited I will be seeing this on Wednesday!

Thanks guys!

I have the same feeling too after the run at City Center. Plus GYPSY being revived every soo often. I actually had a chance to discuss that with Norn (n69n) , WBaf, WaT and RyToast and they all said the same thing.. which are all positive things..so I changed my mind a bit on that..

I was really glad I saw the show.. Its not a PERFECT show but I fell in love with it again. I love everything about it. You know.. its like how I love Madonna..she's not the best singer in the world and I still buy all her CDs. I just like her for who she is...That's how I feel about the musical GYPSY!

I was on the fence with Miss Patti too...but after I saw her last Saturday..she won me over!

That's why I never call my reports -reviews at all bec. I am not a critic.. I just report it on how I see the show and how it affects me based on my upbringing, background and experiences..

When jaystarr writes a review, it's like you were there with him sharing in every moment from getting ready to leave to pre-show drinks to the curtain up to curtain down to the stage door and post-show antics.

it's a delightful review. :]
