Career[edit]

Theatre[edit]

1970s: Early career[edit]

In 1972, LuPone became one of the original members ofThe Acting Company,formed byJohn Houseman.[16]The Acting Company is a nationally touring repertory theater company.[17]LuPone's stint with the company lasted from 1972 to 1976, and she appeared in many of their productions, such asThe Cradle Will Rock,The School for Scandal,Women Beware Women,The Beggar's Opera,The Time of Your Life,The Lower Depths,The Hostage,Next Time I'll Sing to You,Measure for Measure,Scapin,Edward II,The Orchestra,Love's Labours Lost,Arms and the Man,andThe Way of the World.She made herBroadwaydebut in theplayThe Three Sistersas Irina in 1973.[18]For her work inThe Robber Bridegroom(1975) she received her firstTony Awardnomination, for Best Featured Actress in a Musical.[19]The Acting Company honored LuPone on March 12, 2012, in an event called "Patti's Turn" at the Kaye Playhouse.[20]

In 1976, theater producerDavid Merrickhired LuPone as a replacement to play Genevieve, the title role of the troubled pre-Broadway production ofThe Baker's Wife.The production toured at length but Merrick deemed it unworthy of Broadway and it closed out of town.[21]

Since 1977, LuPone has frequently collaborated withDavid Mamet,appearing in his playsThe Woods,All Men Are Whores,The Blue Hour,The Water Engine(1978),[22]Edmond,The Old Neighborhood(1997),[23]andThe Anarchist(2012).The New York Timesreviewer wrote of LuPone inThe Old Neighborhood,"Those who know Ms. LuPone only as a musical comedy star will be stunned by the naturalistic fire she delivers here. As Jolly, a part inspired by Mr. Mamet's real-life sister and his realized female character, Ms. LuPone finds conflicting layers of past and present selves in practically every line. She emerges as both loving matriarch and wounded adolescent, sentimental and devastatingly clear-eyed."[24]In 1978, she appeared in the Broadway musical adaptation ofStuds Terkel'sWorking,which ran for only 24 performances.[25]

In 1979, LuPone starred in the original Broadway production ofEvita,the musical based on the life ofEva Perón,composed byAndrew Lloyd WebberandTim Rice,and directed byHarold Prince.[26]Although LuPone was hailed by critics, she has since said that her time inEvitawas not an enjoyable one. In a 2007 interview, she stated "Evitawas the worst experience of my life, "she said." I was screaming my way through a part that could only have been written by a man who hates women. And I had no support from the producers, who wanted a star performance onstage but treated me as an unknown backstage. It was like Beirut, and I fought like a banshee. "[27]Despite the trouble, LuPone won her firstTony Awardfor Best Actress in a Musical.[28]It was not until she had reprised the role in a production inSydneywhen she had finally enjoyed the part and felt comfortable singing the score.[29]LuPone and her co-star,Mandy Patinkin,remained close friends both on and off the stage.

1980s[edit]

In May 1983, founding alumni of The Acting Company reunited for an off-Broadway revival ofMarc Blitzstein's landmark labor musicalThe Cradle Will Rockat the American Place Theater. It was narrated byJohn Housemanwith LuPone in the roles of Moll and Sister Mister.[30]The production premiered at The Acting Company's summer residence at Chautauqua Institution, toured the United States including an engagement at the Highland Park, Illinois'Ravinia Festivalin 1984 and played in London'sWest End.

When the run ended, LuPone remained in London to create the role ofFantineinCameron Mackintosh's original London production ofLes Misérables,in 1985, which premiered at theBarbican Theatre,at that time the London home of theRoyal Shakespeare Company.[31]LuPone had previously worked for Mackintosh in a short-lived Broadway revival ofOliver!in 1984, playing Nancy oppositeRon Moodyas Fagin.[32]For her work in bothThe Cradle Will RockandLes Misérables,LuPone received the 1985Olivier Awardfor Best Actress in a Musical.[33][34]

According toThe New York Timesreviewer, "Nowadays Ms. LuPone generates more raw excitement than any other performer on the Broadway and cabaret axis, with the possible exception ofLiza Minnelli.... And her brilliant show, conceived and directed by her long-time collaborator, Scott Wittman, deserves many lives, perhaps even a Broadway run in an expanded edition. It certifies Ms. LuPone's place in the lineage of quirky internationalchanteuseslikeLotte Lenya,Marlene DietrichandEdith Piaf,who, like Ms. LuPone, conquered show business with forceful, outsize personalities while playing by their own musical rules. "[77]

Views on theater conduct[edit]

LuPone has expressed concern about the conduct and etiquette of some theatergoers. "Where's the elegance?" she asked in a blog post on her official site. "I mean, I'm glad they show up because God knows it's a dying art form and I guess I'm glad they're all comfortable, sleeping, eating and drinking, things they should be doing at home and in a restaurant. But it's just not done in the theater or shouldn't be."[100]LuPone has been the subject of some controversy due to the bluntness of her statements on the matter, which on some occasions have risen to her directly admonishing audience members for their behavior during performances.

2009 incident[edit]

At the penultimate performance ofGypsyon January 10, 2009, LuPone, irritated by an attendee taking flash photography in apparent violation of theater policy, stopped in the middle of "Rose's Turn" and demanded that the miscreant be removed from the theater. After he was removed, LuPone restarted her number. The audience applauded her stance.[101][102]The event was recorded by another audience member, who released it onYouTube.[103]She later stated that such distractions drive "people in the audience nuts. They can't concentrate on the stage if, in their peripheral vision, they're seeing texting, they're seeing cameras, they're listening to phone calls. How can we do our job if the audience is distracted?", and also mentioned that "the interesting thing is I'm not the first one that's done it".[104]

2015 incident[edit]

On July 8, 2015, during the second act ofShows for Daysat theLincoln Center Theater,LuPone grabbed an audience member's cellphone while leaving the stage as the audience member had been using their phone during the play. It was returned after the show. LuPone stated:

We work hard on stage to create a world that is being totally destroyed by a few, rude, self-absorbed and inconsiderate audience members who are controlled by their phones. They cannot put them down. When a phone goes off or when a LED screen can be seen in the dark it ruins the experience for everyone else – the majority of the audience at that performance and the actors on stage. I am so defeated by this issue that I seriously question whether I want to work on stage anymore. Now I'm putting battle gear on over my costume to marshal the audience as well as perform.[105]

2022 incident[edit]

On May 10, 2022, during a live conversation with theAmerican Theatre Wingand herCompanyco-stars, LuPone called out at audience members who were not wearing theirface masks"properly" during the event and not adhering to theCOVID-19 safety protocolsimplemented byThe Broadway Leagueyelling, "Put your mask over your nose. That's why you're in the theater... That is the rule. If you don't want to follow the rule, get the fuck out. I'm serious. Who do you think you are if you do not respect the people sitting around you?" When an audience member called out in response, "I pay your salary," LuPone replied "You pay my salary? Bullshit. Chris Harper [the producer ofCompany] pays my salary ".[106]After the incident, a spokesperson for the show said in a statement: "We stand with Patti [...] support her efforts to keep our entire community—from patrons to ushers, cast to stage crew—safe and healthy so we can keep Broadway open". This also resulted in the League extending the mask guideline end date from May 31 to June 30, 2022.[107][108]

In an interview, LuPone later explained that prior to her dispute with the patron, the patron had already been approached by the theater's COVID safety manager and been asked to wear the mask over her nose and mouth, and that the patron had responded mockingly by placing the mask over her eyes in a dismissive manner. It was the entirety of the patron's disrespectful behavior, not just the manner in which she was wearing her mask, that LuPone was responding to in her outburst.[109]

Personal life[edit]

LuPone is married to Matthew Johnston. The couple's wedding ceremony was on the stage of theVivian Beaumont Theaterat the Lincoln Center on December 12, 1988, after filming the TV movieLBJ;Johnston was a cameraman.[110]They have one child.[83]They reside inEdisto Beach, South Carolina,[111]andKent, Connecticut.[112]
