Description

Co-production by the Opéra national de Lorraine, where we reviewed the show, the Luxembourg City Theatres, and the Paris Chamber Orchestra. "Never before heard on French stages, the musical comedy Gypsy, based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, is presented in a version developed by one of the greats of musical direction, Laurent Pelly.

While he has also worked in the theater, it is primarily in the realm of opera and musical shows that Laurent Pelly has made a name for himself, sometimes developing, in addition to the staging, the costumes and set design for his productions. A regular collaborator with the national operas of Paris and Lyon, the director has set his sights on a work considered a masterpiece of musical comedy in the United States, Gypsy. Inspired by the autobiographical novel by Gypsy Rose Lee, a stripper who became famous during the 1930s, it tells the sad story of a mother consumed by a desire for fame that leads her to push her two daughters into the spotlight. But they have their own ambitions... Jule Styne, Arthur Laurents and Steven Sondheim create a work of intensely jazzy color and bittersweet atmosphere that bears witness to the end of an era."

More information is available on the official website of the Philharmonie.
