Comments

The 17th annual charity concert in which the various

Broadway ensembles - or Gypsies - get to take center stage

and poke fun at themselves, others in the business

and musical theatre in general.. 

Most of the performances are melodies of songs

from various shows (not the one the ensemble are from)

 often with the lyrics changed or performed with added comic touches.

The winner was the dancers from "Lion King" 

with "Chitty, Chitty..." kids coming second.

Some strong language.
