It was released on VHS but never on DVD.
LuPone is set to return to Broadway this Fall continuing work on the Award winning gender-swap revival of Stephen Sondheim‘s Company. Previews will resume at Broadway’s Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre starting November 15th, 2021. From there, it will officially open on December 9th, 2021.
How fabulous is Patti LuPone?!!!
