Keep in mind that the show is part of a gala evening with Champagne, hors d'oeuvres, and pre and post concert entertainment.

Patti LuPone has a strong theatrical voice. If you have ever had the pleasure to hear ( and watch ) a true Broadway performer ( Artiest) you will understand my meaning. Her talent ( like many artist) has not faded or degraded. The previous post of bandsdavis details Patti LuPone 's performance history. She has not been a media darling and in the limelight outside of Broadway followers and music buffs. I had the pleasure to see her and Mandy Patinkin ( Yental ) at the State a Theater in Cleveland , Ohio a few years ago. I did pay about$100+ for my ticket.
If you enjoy a talented voice and entertaining evening she is worth it.

Hubby and I saw Patti Lupone and Mandy Patinikin on Broadway a couple of years ago. We had seats close to the stage and it was an amazing experience to watch these two pros do what they do best. Patti's has great stage presence. They gave an excellent show.

Exactly! There's a difference between talent and taste. While I respect and can appreciate Patti Lupone's talent, I wouldn't go to see here if she was playing the squares. That's not to say that she's not talented or doesn't have a great voice. She's just not my cup of tea.

Saw her as part of Broadway Series in Cincinnati. While she has a wonderful voice, she did not sing the more popular, recognizable Broadway tunes one would expect such as from Evita so we were very disappointed.
