Patti LuPone?! She's doing Gypsy at City Center here during July. The wardrobe guy at Pirate Queen that I work with is working on it as supervisor. Apparently it's going to be a full out production, unlike most of city Center's Encore productions. I'm excited.
And yes, the Tony's were ridiculously boring this year. I changed the channel in protest when Fantasia came on. There are certain things b'way fans won't embrace, and by god, I hope she's one of them.
Syndey--you have GOT to go see Patti in GYPSY. She did it at Ravinia last year in semi-staged concert version and she was TERRIFIC. Don't even think about missing out on it.
P.S. R.I.P. "Pirate Queen"--makes me sad. Even though I didn't think it was that good, I always get sad when shows close.
