Audra McDonald is featured in the November 2024 issue of Vogue ahead of her debut as Rose in George C. Wolfe’s new production of Gypsy, set to begin previews on November 21 at Broadway’s renovated Majestic Theatre. The article profiles McDonald as she prepares to take on the iconic role.

Wolfe, the six-time Tony winner who directed McDonald onstage in Shuffle Along in 2016 and in the film Rustin last year, praises McDonald: “Audra is a living manifestation of talent and drive and ambition, and she exploded the box. This woman is determined to get at the truth of every character.”
