Sarasota-based actress Liz Power is our guest on today’s Arts Alive! podcast.
She’s one of the stars of Fable, the new show opening Saturday at freeFall Theatre (there’s a preview performance tonight). Doug DeVita’s true-to-life play is about the backstage back-and-forth that went into the classic 1959 Broadway musical Gypsy.
Power plays June Havoc, who had been a child Vaudevillian known as “Baby June” – a singing and dancing Kewpie doll under the iron grip of a domineering stage mother. Havoc later fled her mother’s orbit and became a serious actress.
Her younger sister, Lee, went on to become the most famous stripper in the United States, Gypsy Rose Lee. Mom made that happen, too, but at a cost.

Fable pits the two adult sisters against one another as Lee’s published memoir is about to be turned into a musical. They are at odds over the show’s depictions of their mother, and the lies she told, the screws she turned, to thrust her girls into show business.
The time-jumping Fable is about the shape-shifting nature of truth. #fable #freefall #freefalltheatre #lizpower #billdeyoung #artsalive #stpetecatalyst #tampabay #radio #radiostpete
