Beck’s imbalanced ‘Gypsy’ entertains but does not enthrall.

Roy Berko

Gypsy” is one of the classic scripts in the lexicon of American Musical Theater.  It gets an acceptable, but definitely not a great staging at Beck.  The show’s highlight was the choreography.  The production will entertain some people, but could have been so much more.

Mark Horning

While not up to their usual high standards, the Beck Center’s production of Gypsy is still worth the price of the ticket due to the choreography and orchestration. Many will love the show while others will wish for what might have been.

Christine Howey

Locally, no other theater does big Broadway productions better than Beck Center. But this time around, their Gypsy drops a few spangles but reveals less than it should.

Laura Kennelly

Gypsy’s Mama Rose stamps motherhood as a fearsome creation. The Beck Center production, directed by Scott Spence, simultaneously exposes showbiz’s dark side and delights in its glories — namely story, music and dance. It’s an engaging and touching musical.
