LuPone’s ‘Passion’ heads to N.Y.
A semi-staged concert version of “Passion,” starring Patti LuPone, Michael Cerveris and Audra McDonald, was a success last summer for the Ravinia Festival in Highland Park, Ill.
Now audiences in New York will get to see what the fuss was all about -- and so will television viewers across the nation.
The Stephen Sondheim-James Lapine musical about a love-obsessed woman named Fosca who pines for a handsome soldier will be performed March 30 through April 1 at Lincoln Center’s new Rose Theater in the Time Warner Center. LuPone plays Fosca, Cerveris is the soldier and McDonald is a married woman also in love with the military man.
The March 31 performance will be broadcast on public television stations as part of the “Live From Lincoln Center” series.
