FYI, Gypsy has just been released on Blu-ray in the States. www.blu-ray.com/movies/Gypsy-Blu-ray/161558/#ReviewI saw this (twice!) from front-row center at the Savoy and am so happy to now have a permanent record of this production and Imelda's amazing performance. |

Thanks for that. For the price I am going to get a copy and can delete my copy from my Tivo box to free up some space.

Does anyone know if the bluray is region free or region 1 only? Hmm, for what it's worth, check it out at HMV.Com and that should give you the information you need. |

I ended up having to ask a HMV worker, a friend of mine, to go out back and grab me a copy I had asked him to put aside for me. It had sold out in the HMV in my home town!

It's just a shame it's appalling filmed.

Can anyone help me w two questions?
- If they are dirt poor and the whole troop eats for a 'buck', how can they afford to keep a dog? Wouldn't a lot of hotels etc. not allow them in for having a dog as well while they're travelling around like gypsies? Sounds like a huge inconvenience for someone like Rose that's so self centred anyway
- Why are the 'experienced strip ladies' so reluctant to read lines? It sounds like a more dignified role than 'doing it with a horn' or having a light up vagina.

By the way Fopp (the shop, on the corner near Harry Potter) has the DVD for £5 currently, should anyone still require a copy. Or a back up copy. Or a cheap Birthday gift.

This may be somewhat a strange question, but just curious... in Act 1, did Anita Louise Combe and Louise Gold have any on stage Ensemble moments before coming on in Act 2 in their Stripper roles, and did Dan Burton and Gemma Sutton vice versa? Or did they just sit backstage and wait to wait for Act 2/Bows? I'm assuming the latter as there doesn't seem to be that many Ensemble roles to really perform but I'm not 100% on that.  |

Anita and Louise Gold were stage parents in the first scene with Uncle Jocko. |

Louise Gold was the secretary handling the auditions. That was Julie LeGrand who did that scene. |
