This is a long shot, but does anyone know of a place that I can find a transcript of Patti LuPone's acceptance speech for her Tony during Evita?
She is a woman who always has something interesting to say and I was wondering what her speech must have been like.

Not her speech but something she said about that night:
"My best friend Jeffrey Richman told me--and I have no recollection of this whatsoever--that they came to leading actress in a musical, and I said, 'Here! Hold this!' Before they even mentioned our names, I gave him my program and my pocketbook, ready to get up! I don't remember that. I do remember Faye Dunaway giving me my Tony. She and I have this strange history together; are there two more different actors? Yet we play the same roles."
"Smart! And into all those exotic mystiques -- The Kama Sutra and Chinese techniques. I hear she knows more than seventy-five. Call me tomorrow if you're still alive!"
