Rose's Story

Dear reader

For every mother who is trying to help or hinder their son or daughter getting into films or the theatre - this blog is for you.

We must always remember the iconic figure of Rose, the ultimate showbusiness mother, from the musical GYPSY, and try very very hard not to emulate her.   But how many mothers, of aspiring actor children, wanted to go on the stage themselves.... a lot I think.   Below is a video of the wonderful Bette Midler as Rose in the film of Gypsy (1993) - I dare you not to cry!
