Women in Theatre- Patti LuPone
Tony Award-winning actress Patti LuPone describes the ups and downs of the theatre, from becoming a star in Evita, to negotiating a flop in Sunset Boulevard, to reinventing Mrs. Lovett in the 2005 revival of Sweeney Todd. She also insightfully remarks on the differences between the experiences available for actress for her generation, the generation before her, and the generation after.

Not sure why so many folks don't like the interviewer...I think she does an excellent job asking interesting questions and I love how Patti honestly shares her hurt and sadness at not having being chosen or having been fired from a role. I totally dug this interview of my favorite Broadway performer...her albums are excellent also!
I could watch miss lupone being interviewed for hours!!!!! What an amazing career. I have to get her auto biography xx plus I got to see her last performance in sunset blvd omg what a star xxxx
I think Pattie has the technique, along with so many other bright performers on the stage, that are capable of making musicals, plays, and even modern operas, popular and intriguing to an entirely new audience and a world of new theatre goers.
Patti LuPone is immensely talented, and has been a huge inspiration for me. Great interview!
The interviewer is annoying, at best and Patti is so gracious to put up with her. Patti is a class act, she is multi talented and such a gift to us. I Have seen her in War Paint and Company in London and several concerts...I could see her every day and be so happy! She is not only the best in her business, she is a kind, thoughtful and honest person. I so admire her for who she is!

She is an immense talent. She is also a bully, not too bright and couldn't. be more dishonest. she needs to stay in her lane and not push vaccines and masking which those of US in healthcare know do nothing but she as an actor suddenly thinks she is an expert. It' gets tiring.
I heard her autobiography on CD in my car and it is theatrical and terrific and she is!

i respect her so much for her super engaging acting... it is so impactful i dont even know what she is doing... she has so much going on in her soul and it’s so refreshing to not know all the acting choices she’s making but still experience the impact of it
I love how Patti and Linda keep correcting each other.

Bravísimo! #womenintheatre
Winer leaves a lot to be desired as an interviewer. She appears not to have done any research, or cursory research at best. Worse, she interrupts before LuPone finishes answering the previous question. LuPone was gracious to put up with this. Did Winer just get a new kicky haircut? She keeps shaking her hair as if to show it off. Finally, if she’s going to interview someone of the professional accomplishment of a Patti LuPone, she needs to do more than just make like Kentucky Fried, winging it.

Naminski no it’s Patti LuPone, there’s SO MUCH MORE to her than just voicing Yellow Diamond.
Anyone else get a cringe-y feeling with this interviewer ? Like she should stick to reviews and op-eds versus actual face to face dialogue?

I feel a genuine personal dislike between the two of them.
This interviewer was so passive aggressive
Victorian documentaries
I just love Patti. It’s a shame that new original musicals are being financed. Todays shows are just stage versions of trashy movie comedies starring pretty superficial blondes singing pop songs. Patti is one of the Greats. Young people don’t have much to look forward to, just trashy staged movies. Such a shame.
Sorry Patti you had to go thru this horrible interviewer.
Terrible interviewer.
When your ego is far bigger than your actual talent. When you think you're better than your audience. I call that unprofessional delusion.

@@PabloLopez-rp7lq She is very pretentious in my opinion. I don't like her attitude, the way she acts toward other people and her calling other artists names because they got the part and she didn't. I don't feel she is a very nice person at all.

@@Strode78 she is not. She is immensely talented but she is also very full of herself, not very bright and a bully to boot. Met her more than once and even spent 10 minutes chatting with her in her dressing room. When she waded into pushing her ignorant politics and bullying people I lost all respect for her.
