Music has the power to crystallize a moment in time and evoke eras, in her new concert Patti LuPone: A Life in Notes, the three-time Tony Award winner will perform an array of songs which do just that, songs that are touchstones and reflections on her life growing up in America – as a young girl during the burgeoning rock and roll scene of the fifties, to coming of age in the politically and socially turbulent sixties, to eventually achieving success with both career and family. 

Patti LuPone: A Life in Notes features lighting design by John Hastings, sound design by Mark Fiore and costume design by Catherine Zuber.  Richard Hester is Production Supervisor.
