In 2015, LA Opera will stage "The Ghosts of Versailles" with Patti Lupone as Samira. The role was written for Marilyn Horne. I doubt if Ms Lupone can sing the role.

I doubt if Ms Lupone can sing the role.
And she doubts if you can direct your way to center stage.
All kidding aside, she'll be terrific in this.

Posted: 1/15/14 at 3:16amDoes Patti have the vocal range to sing the role? I agree about her performance as Begbick. The John Doyle production was awful.

I'm sure the ornamentation will change, but I think she'll sing it wonderfully and be wonderfully funny.

Posted: 1/15/14 at 11:06amJohn Corigliano was going to adjust the part for Kristin Chenoweth when she was supposed to do it at the Met a few years ago, so he may be doing the same for LuPone.
Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
