The exhibition spans Glackens's career from the 1890s through the 1930s, with more than 85 important paintings and works on paper from some of America's finest private and public collections, including the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Art, and the Cleveland Museum, among others. Several works in the exhibition are on view to the public for the first time since 1966.

While stage mothers are more popular than ever thanks to television reality shows like "Dance Moms" and "Toddlers and Tiaras," they cannot compare to the ultimate stage mother from a century ago. She was Rose Elizabeth Thompson Hovick, mother of two famous performing daughters: burlesque star Gypsy Rose Lee and actress June Havoc. Their lives were brought to life in one of musical theater's crowning achievements, Gypsy, which first premiered on Broadway in 1959. Based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, this gripping and entertaining, Tony Award-winning musical, featuring a score of classics, including "Let Me Entertain You," and "Everything's Coming Up Roses," now makes its way to the stage of the Grand Theatre located at 405 S. Main Street, Williamstown, NJ, October 24 - November 9 (Thursdays at 7pm; Friday and Saturdays at 8pm; Sundays at 2pm). Tickets, ranging from $22 - $25, are available at www.roadcompany.com or 856-728-2120.
