Tracy Notes About This Show

We offer the complete set of costumes for this show, in all it's complexities, including the various show-in-a-show scenes with children who grow as the scenes go on. Included in our offerings are the three stripper costumes and Caroline, the two person cow, with a mouth that opens wide enough to see the face of the person in the front, and eyes that wink.

Plot Synopsis

Mama Rose, determined to escape her hum-drum life, pushes the vaudeville career of her younger daughter June. After June elopes with a hoofer, she concentrates on her older less talented daughter, Louise. Eventually Louise becomes stripper Gypsy Rose Lee and Rose suffers a breakdown when she realizes she is no longer needed to promote her daughter's career.

And by the way...

The answer to our very most frequently asked question is - NO!!!

The question is: Do you have a minimum order or do we have to rent a whole show?

We believe you should be able to order one hat, two props, an entire show, or anything in between - it's one of your basic theatrical freedoms.
