Audra McDonald will soon begin playing Mama Rose in a revival of 'Gypsy,' a character that shares similarities with Veronica Webb from Jez Butterworth's 'The Hills of California.' Both are performer parents who sacrifice their children's innocence for fame, albeit with different motivations.
'Hills' has an appealing haunted atmosphere, with traumas acting as the ghosts. It draws on the lives of the Webb sisters, now adults, and explores the perpetual cycle of disappointment shaped by their mother’s ambitions.
