Artistic Director Jeffrey Cass and Executive Director Julie Ann Kornak have announced that to end its 10 season BrightSide Theatre will present what is regarded to be the finest musical ever created...GYPSY!

With truly memorable songs - Let Me Entertain You, Everything's Coming Up Roses, You Gotta Have a Gimmick and Some People.

Gypsy: A Musical Fable with book by Arthur Laurents, music Jule Styne, and lyrics Stephen Sondheim will be directed by Jeffrey Cass with choreography by Jeni Donahue and music direction Sara Cate Langham.
