Tryon Little Theatre Presents Gypsy
March 8, 2025 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Tryon Little Theater’s big musical of the season, Gypsy, will run two weekends — February 28 to March 2, and March 7 to 9 — at the Tryon Fine Arts Center. The musical’s lyrics are by Stephen Sondheim, music by Jule Styne, and book by Arthur Laurents.
Many consider Gypsy to be one of the greatest American musicals, with its story loosely based on the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee. Lee’s mother, Rose, is the “ultimate showbiz Mom” determined to raise two daughters to be on the stage. Winner of numerous Tony awards, Drama Desk awards, and a Laurence Olivier award, Gypsy features songs including “Let me Entertain You” and “Everything Coming up Roses!” The New York Times described the show as “a wrenching fable … yet also a showcase for one classic song and rousing vaudeville routine after another.”
Tryon Little Theatre’s production is directed by Laura Depta Peal, alongside music director Pam McNeil.
Tickets are $30 for adults and $15 for those under 18. Tickets can be purchased online at TLTinfo.org, and by calling 828-859-2466.
