But Patti LuPone does not disappoint. The actress, singer and MC is stalking her split-level lair at the W hotel, happily spoofing her Norma Desmond, as first seen in Andrew Lloyd Webber's Sunset Boulevard. Publicist, PA and milling entourage are beseeched with a brick-red grin. She doesn't wait for an answer. She needs her opening remarks.
Paper is produced.
Text is scanned. Patti closes her eyes. Pops them open. I wish someone would investigate roles for mature women. I think we have a little more to offer because of the experience we have.
