She sang it on a Concert in Central park where they did an evening of Leonard Bernstein's music - she was amazing - I wish I could afford to see her in this production and I LOVE Patty Lupone - should be an amazing evening.


"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

Don't remind me...!!!

Even a free ticket is too much to spend to hear what "that woman" will inflict on "Glitter and be Gay".....

I hope she "mugs" like Martha Raye during "Make our garden grow"!

I love you!

I actually when warmed up can sing a fairly decent soprano high B....

I know Kristen can "sing" it..I just don't want to "hear" it!

well - once again, I've seen her do it and its really a beautiful and very funny rendition - not many sopranos find the humor in the song - actually, she acts it quite well.

the only role I can think of her (Patti) doing in the show is the old woman - "I am easily assimilated." what other role could she possibly do in the show?

i take it that "i am easily assimilated" is that name of the song this charater sings??? if so is it a song that will show off lupone's voice (a big belty showstopper)???? thanks :)

I believe there's a video of Kristin singing Glitter at that concert on the site http://www.kristin-chenoweth.com
It's in the "News" section on the right side. :) Not super-duper fond of it, but it's cute and Kristin rules despite almost anything.

I do hope Kristin tries to pull the meshuga she pulls at Wicked onstage with Patti LuPone. That will be a cootch-kick for the ages.

Miss. Lupone won't go for Kristen's "Steve and Edie" crap!

Sorry to dissapoint you, VC and Anthony, but I think Kristin will be wonderful in this.

Patti will be awsome as the Old Lady! Whos playing Paquette? anyone know, for that matter who's Maxamillian, Dr. Pangloss or Candide??

I think Christopher Fitzgerald (Boq from Wicked) was Candide as some point. It would be a hoot if both he and Kristin were in the same production!

Nothing that comes out of your icon's mouth could disappoint me, LcZ.
