@jackprather81 4 ай бұрын

When I went to see this show in April of 2022, Patti's gaze rested on me in the audience and she sang most of this song directly to me. It's something lots of actors do to keep hold of the intimacy and storytelling in singing a song. I was wearing my mask (as I should have been) so she couldn't see much of my face, but you can bet I gave her the eye contact she needed. Great show.

I'm pretty sure she has to build her life around hydrating, getting plenty of rest, and watching her stamina. Here's to the ladies who sing!

Patti brings her gritty, but she is not as gritty as Elaine. Elaine is untouchable in this song. I feel Elaine had a deeper understanding too of this song and was able to convey it better....and Elaine's vocal performance is informed by her POV to the ladies...sometimes I feel Patti's vocal in this song is because she puts the Patti vocal spin on it (which she does brilliantly, but to me, is not conveying a POV in moments.)

A testament to decades of practice and refining the craft, and also to her innate talent.

I feel like it would've been very easy to be annoyed with that character and feel like she was just a cruel and uncaring person, but Patti Lupone did such an amazing job bringing out her deeper dimensions. That character ended up meaning a lot to me and it was in large part due to Ms. Lupone's performance that we the audience got to feel that. Also loved seeing her with Randy Rainbow that one time recently, that made my whole day!
