The Notion

"Gypsy Rose Lee was the burlesque queen who put the "tease" in striptease. Although the show is called Gypsy, the central character is her relentlessly driven mother, Rose, who during Gypsy's childhood is determined to make Gypsy's younger sister, June, into a vaudeville star. The chronicle of Rose, Louise (Gypsy's real name) and June covers a period of approximately ten years."

- Stephen Sondheim in Finishing the Hat -
