'Gypsy' Music and Technical Aspects | The Box Seat Babes Podcast

Audra McDonald is a Broadway Legend in every sense of the title, from her incredible acting to even more impressive singing. So when we heard that she was starring in a revival of Stephen Sondheim's Gypsy, we knew that we had to see it in person on our next trip to New York City. This classic musical based on the story of real life burlesque dancer Gypsy Rose Lee debuted back in 1959 and has continued to stun audiences with each revival. This time, the creatvies behind Gypsy are looking to put a new spin on the decades old show, exploring typics that make for a more dynamic experience for all involved! In this episode of the Box Seat Babes podcast, hosts Brian Kitson and RJ Miller-Zelinko continue their discussion of Broadway's Gypsy, with a focus on the songs and dance numbers, staging, and lighting.
