(The picture you see is from the book: "10086 Sunset Boulevard: From Movie to Musical" by George Perry. Miss Patti signed it for me when I saw her in her dressing room, after her "Sweeney Todd" perf. I was nervous about asking her to sign this picture from this book, but she signed it anyway.) I would LOVE to see Miss Patti (LuPone) on Broadway in a revival of "Sunset Boulevard". Not only would we see a fabulous performance, but it would alleviate the GROSS injustice, in 1994, that prevented Miss Patti LuPone from assuming the role on Broadway. It's a nice fantasy, but Miss Patti has written in the past that she would NEVER work again with the Really Useful Group. I can't say that I blame her for feeling that way.

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
