‘Gypsy’ Broadway Review: Audra McDonald Electrifies In George C. Wolfe’s Sensational Revival
Audra McDonald delivers an absolutely sensational performance in George C. Wolfe's "Gypsy" Broadway revival.
However, the latest revival, shepherded by legendary director and playwright George C. Wolfe and starring Tony Award winner Audra McDonald, is an electric and truly unique production that will undoubtedly become a crowning jewel in the canon of “Gypsy.” Ribboned with glorious melodies including “Some People,” “You’ll Never Get Away From Me” and the beloved “Everything’s Coming Up Roses,” which put McDonald’s robust, crisp and exhilarating voice front and center, every second of the two-act musical is an immersive experience. From the flow and rhythm of Camille A. Brown’s dazzling choreography to the set and sound design by Santo Loquasto and Scott Lehrer, respectively, and certainly the glimmering costuming by Toni-Leslie James (especially in Act II), it’s evident why “Gypsy” has withstood the test of time.
