Diva In The House! Miss Patti LuPone Takes To The Benaroya Stage…Leave Those Camera Phones OFF!

February 3, 2026• byMichael Strangeways

Miss Patti do NOT mess around…if you take a photo during her upcoming concert at Benaroya Hall or your phone rings or you fart audibly, the Lady LuPone will JUMP off the stage, grab you by your NECK, rip off your pathetic HEAD, and she will…DRINK YOUR BLOOD AND DRAIN YOU DRY!!!!

You have been warned.

Actually, we agree with her. Being a bad audience member deserves some vengeful wraith from the performers. Let them do their job!

There are still a few seats left to see the three time Tony Award winning Broadway star who hits the Benaroya Stage on Thursday, February 27th as part of her revisit to her MATTERS OF THE HEART show which she first performed 25 years ago.

Just don’t expect to hear a medley of “Sunset Boulevard” tunes…
