A Broadway Superstar for more than 30 years, Patti LuPone is a two-time Tony Award Winner (Best Performance by a Leading Actress for Evita and Gypsy); Olivier recipient (Best Actress in a Musical for Les Miserables), and a two-time Grammy winner (Best Classical Album, Best Opera Recording for Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny). Her bold, infectious personality and talent has led her to win the hearts of Musical Theatre mavens across the globe.

In her new, critically-acclaimed concert Far Away Places, two-time Tony Award winner (Gypsy, Evita) Patti LuPone shares her penchant for wanderlust by taking us on a musical journey. Accompanied by a five-piece band, she delivers thrilling renditions of songs by an eclectic list of songwriters including Stephen Sondheim, Cole Porter, Willie Nelson, Kurt Weill, Edith Piaf, Frederick Hollander, and, even the BeeGees!

Conceived and directed by Scott Wittman
Musical Direction and Arrangements by Joseph Thalken
