Reviews
Gypsy, written in the late-1950s by Arthur Laurents, Jule Styne, and Stephen Sondheim (this being only his second Broadway musical), has been renowned by theater critics since it's first appearance in Broadway. This script is one of the most brilliant every written for the musical theater with one of the most complicated characters written in musical theater. For those who have never seen or read this musical but are interested in the work of any of it's authors or of work of the late-1950s, this is an excellent read. And for those not interested in musical theater, I'd still suggest reading it. Yes, it is that good.Also, for those interested, the script was edited slightly after the 1973 revival with Angela Lansbury. The new ending of Rose's Turn was put into the script. However, that is the only major change I am aware of in the script.
