In Rose's Turn, she refers to herself as "Mama" countless times in succession. Hence...Mama Rose. It's not a stretch and no offense has been committed.

According to the script, how old are the strippers supposed to be?

I know a common gag is to cast them almost geriatric, but is that in the script, or is that just a convention that has developed over time?

Miss Streisand has 'stolen' roles that went from stage to screen. In order to repay that debt, I propose:

Tessie: Tovah Feldhsuh
Mazeppa: Barbara Harris
Electra: Caral Channing

"According to the script, how old are the strippers supposed to be?"

They're often cast a bit older than Rose. Here, Rose will be played by Streisand.

You do the math.

Love the idea of the three previous Roses playing the strippers. But, still, let Barbara Harris play any of the three she wants and then cast the other two. Barbara, come back to us!

In my new film Burning Down the House the song You Gotta Get a Gimmick is featured
it feature the two landladies and a wife singing during Stephanie's birthday party
the three women are
Mazeppa: Caren Fitzpatrick
Electra: Percy Figueroa
Tessie Tura: Claudia Ratzlaff
If babs saw this film maybe they would recast Caren, Percy and Claudia as Mazeppa, Electra and Tessie Tura
