GYPSY Broadway Poster * PATTI LUPONE * 3' x 4' Rare 2008 NEW : Large Color Poster for the New York City 2008 Stage Production of * Gypsy * opening on Broadway March 27th at the famed St. James Theater on West 44th Street in Times Square , New York City. " This people's got it, and this people's spreadin' it around ! " The legendary Patti LuPone is Mama Rose in Gypsy. A consummate show-biz musical suggested by the memoirs of stripper Gypsy Rose Lee. She was once just plain Louise , the awkward daughter of an unstoppably ambitious stage mother. When her pretty sister runs away from the family's minor vaudeville act , Louise tries to fulfill her mother's dreams. But it's not until trouping with Mama dwindles to appearing in burlesque , that Louise finally finds pleasure in the spotlight. The vibrant score includes ' Some People ' ' Let Me Entertain You ' , ' Together ' , ' Everything's Coming Up Roses ' and ' Rose's Turn. ' Of her Tony Award winning performance in Gypsy , the New York Times says " Watch out, New York. Patti LuPone has found her focus. And when Ms. LuPone is truly focused, she’s a laser, she incinerates. Especially when she’s playing someone as dangerously obsessed as Momma Rose in the wallop-packing revival of the musical “Gypsy,” which opened on Thursday night at the St. James Theater. From the get-go, Ms. LuPone exudes a sweet-and-sweaty air of hope and desperation, balancing on an unsteady seesaw. Watching that balance shift is a source of wonder, amusement and even pity and terror. In Rose’s two great curtain numbers, “Everything’s Coming Up Roses” and “Rose’s Turn,” the darkness takes over so completely that you feel that you’re watching a woman who has been peeled down to her unadorned id. In “Rose’s Turn,” in particular, Ms. LuPone takes you on a guided tour of all Rose’s inner demons, from sexual succubus to shivering infant. (Be warned: they will live in your head for a while.)
