Gypsy, one of the greatest musicals of all time is back on Broadway in its fifth revival, and a cast that includes six-time Tony winner Audra McDonald. But for the first time in history, the main characters are people of color.
"Gypsy," the latest revival of the Stephen Sondheim classic on Broadway, will be dark Monday night after multiple illnesses hit the company, according to a social media post.
"Due to multiple illnesses within the company, tonight’s performance is cancelled. Now that the production has opened, we are very quickly getting all our understudies up to speed. Please check with your point of purchase to exchange or refund your tickets," the post read.
