Gypsy is a 1959 musical with music by Jule Styne, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and a book by Arthur Laurents. Gypsy is loosely based on the 1957 memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee, the famous striptease artist, and focuses on her mother, Rose, whose name has become synonymous with "the ultimate show business mother."  Composed by Jule Styne with lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, Gypsy received eight Tony Award nominations when it debuted on Broadway in 1960
