I would love to hear how it went. I loved this show when I saw it back in May, would've loved to have seen it again.

It was really nice. Both ladies got lots of entrance applause, but Patti’s was so long she had to hold her hand out to quiet everyone hahah. Every moment seemed extra sentimental and they paused a bit more than they probably normally do. During bows Patti was crying and everyone seemed a lil sad too. Michael Greif, Scott Frankel, and Doug Wright came out and Doug gave a speech about the show. It was a truly great performance!

Also saw Ryan Murphy and Cyndi Lauper in the audience!

It was a lovely performance. You could really tell that Patti’s hip was bothering her also.  Didn’t see Cindy but saw Ryan Murphy.  You couldn’t miss him in his red bandana suit and hat.

I was there! Great performance - it was my first time seeing the show because I just happened to win the lottery seats. I saw Cyndi, and I didn't realize that was Ryan Murphy! I was waiting on line at the will call right behind him and he was right next to me at the concessions, and I really questioning his outfit choice.

It must have been very sad for the two leads. I think they were expecting much more from this run (starting with a Tony or two...).

These ladies are pros. They both got nominated amd both have won awards in the past. I can't speak directly for them, but I would think tbey were probably happy to see a sbow they wanted to do get to Broadway and do fairly well. I would assume they would have liked a longer run than this but Lupone would not have been able to go on anyway. Just my opinion.

This show had a decent run for what it was.  I am sure they are pleased and proud of their work.
