"While the character as portrayed in Gypsy commonly is referred to as "Mama Rose" (or "Momma Rose"), this is a sobriquet that does not appear in the script, and adamantly was dismissed by its author Arthur Laurents. In the musical Gypsy, the character is called Momma, Rose, or Madam Rose."
I have not checked this for accuracy.
Does it bother me that she's often referred to as Momma Rose? Not one frigging bit. |
