Inspired by the life story of burlesque entertainer Gypsy Rose Lee, "Gypsy" tells the story of a relentless showbiz mother determined to help her daughters become stars on the Vaudeville stage, according to The Shubert Organization. Known for songs such as "Everything's Coming Up Roses," "Let Me Entertain You" and "You Gotta Get a Gimmick," the iconic musical consists of music by Jule Styne, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and a book by Arthur Laurents.

The character of Rose was originated by Ethel Merman in the show's original 1959 production and has since been played by Angela Lansbury, Tyne Daly, Bernadette Peters, Patti LuPone and Imelda Staunton.

"It's one of the great roles in musical theater, and I've always thought maybe some day I could try it," McDonald told The New York Times in an interview published Wednesday. "It scares me to death, but I certainly feel old enough now, and having experienced motherhood, perhaps I have what is needed to dive in and explore her and all that she is."
