Last night, I went to see Gypsy starring
Patti LuPone. Patti LuPone, people! Holy cow!
The show was beyond incredible. It was, honestly, the greatest theatre performance I've ever witnessed. This woman commanded such a presence from the moment she walked on stage. I mean, she is Patti LuPone. Her voice was throaty, bold, and experienced. When she threw her arms up in the air and belted out "Everything's Coming Up Roses", I said to myself "Don't ever forget this moment." I may have had tears in my eyes. Shhh.
If you care about the theatre at all, you must go see Gypsy while Ms. LuPone is playing Rose. It will be the performance of a lifetime and worth every single penny.
