Natalie Dessay and her daughter, Neïma Naouri, star in the French premiere of the musical Gypsy, after a 66-year delay. The production, running at the Philharmonie de Paris, features Dessay as the demanding stage mother, Rose, and Naouri as her daughter, Louise. While Dessay downplays the familial dynamic influencing their performance, Naouri admits to blurring lines between character and reality during the emotionally charged show.
