About Gypsy
Here she is boys, here she is world: it’s Audra! Get Gypsy tickets and see Audra McDonald, the most Tony Award-winning performer of all time, in the five-time Tony Award-nominated revival of a classic through August 17 only. After multiple revivals of the musical, it’s McDonald’s turn in the iconic role of Momma Rose, the ultimate "stage mother" who goes to extremes to push her daughters into the stardom she could never achieve for herself.
Celebrated for her stellar voice and varied, dynamic performances, the six-time Tony, two-time Grammy, and Emmy winner McDonald is not to be missed. Featuring a majority-Black main cast and creative team for the first time in the show's history — including multi-Tony-winning director George C. Wolfe and four-time Tony-nominated choreographer Camille A. Brown (Hell’s Kitchen) — this Gypsy is a wholly fresh production of one of the most celebrated musicals in history.

More information about Gypsy
A classic musical, Gypsy takes place just as the once-popular vaudeville industry is declining in the early 20th century. Nonetheless, the constant dreamer and unbearable stage mom Momma Rose looks to push her daughter June into the spotlight at any cost — traveling the country, sweet-talking an agent (and her love interest), and neglecting June's less talented sister, Louise, who against all odds ends up as one of the burlesque scene’s most famous strippers. But as Rose remains in the shadows as Louise’s career ascends, she must come to terms with her own lack of self-love.
