Photo Flash: First Look at Krissy Fraelich and More in GYPSY at The Media Theatre
The iconic musical GYPSY is on stage at The Media Theatre through November 1. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast onstage below!
Philadelphia's Krissy Fraelich, a Springfield resident, plays Mama Rose who is the ultimate stage mother, doing everything she can to push her daughters to stardom. From the time of vaudeville's heyday to it's end, Mama Rose wants nothing more than celebrity and fame to find its way to siblings June and Louise. Based on the true story of famed stripper Gypsy Rose Lee, GYPSY never goes out of style due to its resonating core.
The score is legendary, with songs including "Let Me Entertain You", "Everything's Coming Up Roses" and "Rose's Turn" that have become synonymous with music theatre. The lyrics, written by Stephen Sondheim in his younger years, are filled with irony while the music by Jule Styne represents the brassy, sassy style rarely heard in contemporary theatre.
Get tickets to the show by calling 610-891-0100 or visiting mediatheatre.org. GYPSY has Wednesday performances at 2pm and 7:30, Thursdays at 7:30, Fridays at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm and 8pm, and Sundays at 3pm now through November 1.
