Thank you Patti - When I was 17 in 1976 we went to previews because the orchestra seat was $12 instead of the normal $16. Everyone used to be able to go see shows and it made a huge difference.
This is the Patti I have worshipped for so many years. She is so much more than her persona.
I remember her best from the TV show Life Goes On.
My compliments to Tom Power, this interview is thoughtful, interesting, never dull but then we're talking about Patti Lupone here, brilliant and never anything but brilliant. Tom's questions and delivery were so good and Patti so engaged. Thank you!!
My parents took me to see Patti in “Evita” back in ‘79 . . . Have loved her ever since. Thanks for the great interview!
A great interview! Patti did South Pacific at our high school and we all thought this girl's going places. Next time I saw her I was going through my program in the lobby of the Ahmanson in L.A. trying to figure out who the amazing actress/singer was that I was watching onstage The Baker's Wife. I was shocked when I realized it was Patti! She always knew what she was born to do. Amazing career. Great job Tom!
Love her talent and her spirit! Great artist!
Master artist and full of guts.
Love her! He was a great interviewer
Fantastic episode. Thank you. And break a leg Patti on your new show.

Hello Mr. James 👋
I'm just here to give a shout-out to 1989's historic TV family drama Life Goes On and Patti's incredibly touching performance as Mom of the family, Libby Thatcher. So much heart in that show ❤️
This was a great interview. Thanks to you both!
I was wataching Vampirina on Disney with my grandson the other day, and suddenly heard Patti Lupone's voice. She was playing Vampirina's Grandmother. I looked in the credits and I was correct!
Great interview. I love Patti. She let me go backstage twice when I was young and flew out from the UK to see her Broadway concert. She was so sweet and kind, and I've always appreciated her for that.
Great interview. Glad I stumbled on it!
Thank you, Tom, for your knowledge, love of theatre, and for conducting a really great interview. Thank you, Patti, for your enthusiasm, energy, sense of fun, and the great gift of your talent. Blessings to you both-- :)
What a fabulous interview! Bravo!
You don’t understand what she did on that stage in gypsy. I had to see it twice. I was in the *very* last row at the absolute back of the theater both times as a tiny musical theater performer in town to audition and what I saw her do was absolute and total perfection. I’ll never forget it. Both shows!
I do understand, Blah, because I saw it too: possibly the most electrifying live musical theatre performance I've ever seen. And I was fortunate enough to have a great seat!
Terrific interview!
Hello Mr. Joe 👋
Patti is just a fabulous interviewee. She’s lived through & seen so much. I saw her in ‘Gypsy’ just after she won the Tony & she tore the MF-in roof off the place.
i was honored to have seen her in previews for Evita in san francisco.....bway bound for fame!
Patti Is Amazing! Keep it Up!
A priceless lesson in theatre musical
LOVE HER!
I love her ❤
Her grand aunts were famous opera singers. It runs in the family.
I watched her show here in Toronto on Friday, it was wonderful.
Do you have any video footage of that you can share? I was sick and missed it. :(
For a women of 75 her voice is still a force to be reckoned with!
Happy 75th Birthday Patti
Very good interview! I agree with Patti about Broadway ticket prices...hense I give talks called "Broadway on a Budget" where I share ways to see shows for under $60 a ticket.
Patti is Broadway Royalty. She Never had #1 solo albums or her own hit pop/rock songs BUT she's truly a Legendary Lady of Broadway!✨
Exactly and when you are amazingly talented and as lovely as Patti, you don't need a solo hit. Patti is a hit in her own right!
Of the stage, generally, not merely Broadway.
I love Patti LuPone, and I loved her realness in this interview.
Patti you are the best!
Patti said "Argentinian" people but actually it is "Argentine people". That doesn't take away the magnitude of her superb talent.
Be my 2nd time, seeing her TONIGHT!!!!! Like, in 3.5 hours!!!!!! Ahhhh!!!!! 🎉😂❤
I think the best role Patti ever acted was The Cut-wife of Balantree Moor (Joan Clayton) in Penny Dreadful. I’ve always wanted to ask her what was it that they were pouring on her to burn her as a witch. Yeah, it’s supposed to be tar, it looked like old motor oil from a car… but it had to be chocolate! And I loved watching her act against Eva Green, Timothy Dalton, Helen McCrory (R.I.P.,) etc. It had to have been an absolute blast.

My Mum told eight year old me piano lessons would help me in math. Eight years of piano lessons later math was and is my worst subject. I can count but it didn’t help much.😂
I love this lady. So talented and strong in her opinions. Love her.
She is just wonderfull and fantastique artiste in fact magnifique.to see her on the stage out of this world.Edward Arckless ex Royal Oper Ballet Covent Garden London and conservatoire de Ville de Paris France
LUPONE does NOT have an Oscar!?
Correct. She has received 2 'Olivier' Awards.
@robjack2804: I read somewhere that she was in an intimate relationship with a man named “Oscar”. I guess she had him, once. Does that count?
@@johnpickford4222💀
she's the best
Give us your recipe book Patti!
I love this woman but Les Mis wasn't all RSC! Frances Ruffelle, Michael Ball, Rebecca Caine. All musical performers. ❤
I think she meant when it first opened in London, it was an RSC production.
Patti does indeed have three Tony Awards( she should have more), but no Oscar as it says in the description.
You betta PREACH about those ticket prices Patti!
I love Patti Lupone. It’s so dreadful that there are no more great musicals being financed. Today’s shows are just trashy reworks of superficial films or Disney stuff. I agree with her views about people being dumb.
It would have been nice if you had asked her about Masterclass
"like Sarah Palin or Marjorie Taylor Greene" - understood immediately
her pact with the devil was that later in life she couldn't hear how she actually sounded.
Best Mama Rose!
Lower prices, great idea but who is going to pay the salary you expect ?
To be fair the ticket prices for all her concerts are almost all around the $40 to $100 mark.
...or were we always dumb, Patti? That's what i wonder...(as a whole, in terms of bell curve).
Look at that giant honker covered with gin blossoms. WC Fields lives!
Madonna is on a world tour. Patti is on a what?
That's comparing apples and oranges. Not a valid point at all. Patti is not the same kind of entertainer that Madonna is. And Madonna could never, ever do what Patti is capable of.
Stage actor and pop star are two different things, you cant compare the two really. That would like saying Madonna cant be that good because she never gets cast in broadway shows or operas!
What does this have to do with anything.
Still puzzles me how low are the requirements to be Super.
She IS. loud. Too loud.
Fabulous singer and entertainer but she was so rude to people during pandemic. Not a nice person.
what do you mean? is there proof to your claim?
@@LucasFerreira-rl9nd it’s on line. A clip where she was on stage and yelled at people. I have also seen her interviewed and was not impressed.
Because the person didn’t follow the rules and endangered people
@@Confessional24 it’s a myth . This person wasn’t endangering anyone and she had no call to treat anyone the way she did.
Are you kidding? Patti did a lot of charitable work during the pandemic. she performed live on zoom broadcasts to raise money for people who work on Broadway who lost their jobs because of the shut down. she also did a live stream concert of all her hit songs and let regional theaters all over the country have the rights to it to sell to their subscribers so that regional theaters around America would stay open. she protects her cast mates and everyone involved in the show and follows the pandemic rules. the woman you are referencing was in the audience taking off her mask which for the audience was required to keep it on. cast was at a distance from the audience and were not masked because they don't wear them in performance. they had just completed the performance and they were having a panel discussion. the cast also had constant testing requirements
point is, patti was following the rules. the audience woman was not. patti called her out on it. from pattis point of view, they are fighting to keep broadway healthy safe and open for business. this woman only cared for herself. if you don't understand that then I wish you the very best in luck.
