The word on the street, girls, is that Chowsie, the dog, steals the show. And let us hope our good friend, Caroline, the cow is on hand.
As for Audra, well, she sounds like she is trying, but that is not good enough. I heard she is singing most of the score through her head voice. I mean, come on! This score is tough enough, without having to resort to tricks, and if she does that throughout, I worry about her voice holding up. They better get it right, by January 26. when I, The Raving Queen, visit the show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Still, there is a good omen in the air. This production is relighting the renovated Majestic Theatrre. And just 67 years ago, you know what opened there? "The Music Man" with Robert Preston and Barbara Cook!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, maybe this "Gypsy" has a chance!
I cannot wait to see the reviews tomorrow, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve only read one review but, words like “too polished” , “operatic” and “uneven” stood out to me. And the dreaded “miscast”
Does she slide back and forth from head to chest voice, do you know??
Victoria,, I think she slides back and forth. I worry about vocal problems.
