Gypsy: A Musical Fable
1st- 4th February 2023, The Winston Theatre
A Note from the Director:
When this show was first put to me in summer last year, I wondered if doing such a mammoth pieve as Gypsy would present insurmountable challenges. The show isn't as widely known outside of Musical Theatre circles, and the plot is gritty. However, every hurdle we've taken on the chin; dare I say with vim, verve, and nerve! While this process has not been easy, I've had a complete blast and the obstacles we faced along the way only fuelled us to go on to create something truly wonderfukl.
