I saw both the Peters version and the LuPone version and have always been a big fan of "Gypsy" in general, but I couldn't have sat through LuPone a second time if you paid me. I loved the Mendes production. I thought it was beautiful and engaging and I am one of those people who loved that entire cast. Comparing it to the LuPone version, I think I've said it before but I truly felt like I wasn't watching Patti as Mama, I was watching Patti as Patti and that 100% murdered any enjoyment I may have
