Posted: 3/9/15 at 7:51amInteresting. Acting Company Present at the Friedman, though? That's odd. Could it be a benefit reading?

Posted: 3/9/15 at 8:00amGood role for Bobby, who was not at his best in either "The Big Knife" or "Glengarry Glen Ross" and deserves to be seen to better advantage, and a great one for Patti. I hope this does get a full production.

The old Telecharge website has a little more information. It's definitely a one-night-only event (Monday, April 27th at 7pm), with Doug Hughes directing. Tickets will be $100-$250.

I think they will read the play.
Good casting, so far, How's The Pone's Italian accent?

Damn, that was wonderful. Cannavale was brilliant, and LuPone was extraordinary. Cast her in a full revival, somebody!

Great performances all around. Never saw the show, I am a fan. Bobby and Patti knocked it out of the park.

Isn't Lapone a bit long of tooth to play a pregnant woman with a 12-year-old daughter?

"Isn't Lapone a bit long of tooth to play a pregnant woman with a 12-year-old daughter?"
Somehow I don't think anyone cared last night.
But I would honestly love for her to get a full rehearsal period and do even a limited run of the show, just to see how much further she can take Serafina. I thought she was just incredible last night, but I know there has to be more.

Zoe Wanamaker played the role in London in 2007, at the age of 58.

^ I would be more than willing to hand-wave the fact that she's clearly much older than Serafina should be. Someone really should've mounted a production for LuPone 20 years ago, but that was the nadir of her life and fame. She said in a recent interview that she'd love to do a full production (which I know is the equivalent of "yes, I'd LOVE a full-time paying job!"), though I do think it'd still be better suited for a limited run of some sort.
