Nothing on Broadway Hits Harder Than Audra McDonald’s ‘Rose’s Turn’ →

What McDonald does is expose a woman you hadn’t known existed, but who when you think about it later was always there. In the song’s stormy preface, Rose speaks of “what I been holding down inside of me.” That turns out to be something more than the wounded, outsize ego of someone who believes she should have been a contender. The resentment and jealousy that Rose feels toward Gypsy and her younger, runaway daughter, the beloved and cosseted June (Jordan Tyson), are transformed into a more far-reaching fear of abandonment.

How Broadway’s Audra McDonald and Joy Woods Made Gypsy Their Own →

By all accounts, the main event this Broadway season is director George C. Wolfe’s revival of Gypsy, starring six-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald as the ambitious, overbearing, and fiercely protective Mama Rose. It’s a punishing, seismic role that’s been played by a true murderer’s row of Broadway divas—including Ethel Merman, Bernadette Peters, and, of course, Patti LuPone—but McDonald, the first Black actor to play Rose, was determined to interpret it anew.
