This title is so messy lol she wasn’t pissed at Bernadette, she was pissed at the director for not telling her that they gave the part to Bernadette and not her.

[@fountainchain126]

She has every reason to be pissed at Bernadette though. Patti auditioned to replace Bernadette in Sunday but didn’t get it, she then was courted to play the Witch in ITW, turned it down for it only to be offered to Bernadette. Then comes the 90s, where Patti campaigned publicly to play Annie Oakley in a Broadway revival of Annie Get Your Gun (even playing it in concert first) only for a production to be mounted in 1999 centred around Bernadette. Then the Sam Mendes Gypsy happened in the late 90s/early 2000s. Then in 2011, Patti wanted to replace Catherine Zeta Jones in A Little Night Music but Trevor Nunn never returned her phone call and offered Bernadette the role instead. I think Patti has always been envious of Stephen Sondheim’s adoration for Bernadette and also that they’ve always been up for similar roles as they’re similar types. But I don’t think they’ve ever had actual public beef. They’ve always been quite diplomatic. You’re right, most of the beef has been with producers and directors but it seems Bernadette has always been part of her many heartaches 😅

Matthew Senese she claims she wanted to play Cinderella (can’t really picture that tbh) but they offered her the Witch. I believe she made a number of demands (salary, top billing) which they didn’t want to give her and then when Bernadette ended up doing it she got everything Patti wanted including star billing 👀 Bernadette got the last laugh as well because she announced Joanna Gleason as the Tony winner for best actress that year where Patti was also nominated (and the perceived frontrunner) for Anything Goes...

[@gabrieltaylor2589]

What happened was Sam Mendes had originally thought of Lupone for the role and offered it to her but Arthur Laurents had casting approval. Patti was on his sh*t list because she had walked out on one of his shows years earlier called "Jolson Sings Again" and he vowed she would never play Mamma Rose in New York. Arthur also wanted to cast Bernadette as Rose since she was closer to how the real Rose actually existed. He later did Gypsy with Lupone as a revenge production against Sam whom he feuded with during Bernadette's Gypsy. So much petty drama!

[@BrooklynDreaminCG]

The Middler version was was 1993. Cohen should do his research and his math. Otherwise I like him quite a bit. I know she had had a falling out w Arthur Laurents at one point before they reconciled and she did Gypsy. She’s a great talent. I remember seeing seeing her do Pal Joey at Encores Presentation, shortly after the Sunset Blvd. disappointment. She stopped the show with “Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered.” There was a Q&A afterward and she wasn’t even expected to be part of it. But after a few minutes, she rushed out to graciously thank us for our love and support. That’s to me makes her a class act. I loved her memoir also.

The title is erroneous. Patti was in no way pissed of by Bernadette but by the producers and directing team who apparently behaved very poorly to her. But though they are not necessarily friends there is a great mutual respect between the ladies ( Bernadette , Patti, Bette ) and feuds are mostly uncommon between actors. Feuds are more frequent between actor/producer/manager/agent... but between actors/performers we usually know that we're on the same boat so we usually get along just fine ..

[@Ed-ml6kl]

Ms. Lupone was being herself and she was honest. Thee are a lot of snakes in the show business - you thing it is a harmless garter snake and sometimes they become rattlesnakes.

[@Gee-xb7rt]

It became popular because of Gillian Lynne's choreography, Its just a very odd combination of dance theater and poems about a cat monarchy that runs a death cult. I think if anyone actually understood what was going on it would be a lot less popular, people are mesmerized by the choreography, which the film unfortunately hacked to bits.

Messy title--Andy doin' too many bong hits, tho.....

[@seanyates5769]

Patti has always had an EGO like nobody else in Musical Theatre. That’s the difference. She didn’t get that Arthur wanted to tell the story of Rose in a different way than ever before in 2003. He wanted to see Rose in reality as a victim of circumstance, a mother , a beautiful woman who could have done it all if born at a different time. She instead resorted to making her kids successful at all costs. That’s truly what the story of the real Rose was about. A beautiful woman gone mad to make her kids what she couldn’t be. Bernadette did that and was AMAZING. People just didn’t understand that interpretation. They were so used to the fabricated story of Rose. It still never took away Bernies amazing work hence the Tony Nomination. Patti just isn’t that. Patti returned the show to its roots. Patti is the Standard Fabricated Rose. An unusual beauty, Loud, Selfish, Stubborn. The traditional interpretation of Rose loving herself over her kids. It’s why they got her that Tony. They did the 2008 show around Pattis strengths.

[@fountainchain126]

Not true. Patti reinterpreted that role to a whole new level. Her memoir, Arthur Laurents' memoir and the NY Times review all attest to the fact that this was a reinvented Rose, a woman who loved her kids but was misguided and simply went too far. LuPone's Rose, like Bernadette's, was sexy, vulnerable and full of pathos. But LuPone also truly shone in the vocal pyrotechnics of the role and in the big numbers specifically Rose's Turn. Peters, for all her virtues, did not have the pipes at that time for those big numbers (her best rendition of 'Some People' is on her Sondheim Etc. album from the 90s - truly astonishing...).

[@chazsallen]

@@fountainchain126 That album is really fantastic. I'd argue that Bernadette is at her peak vocally at that time and she sounds amazing on that record. Her voice never seemed to really have the same dexterity from Gyspy onward, though I've still very much enjoyed her work since then. Her Rose's Turn at the Tony Awards was wonderful. You're right about Patti, though, with the pyrotechnics. My first trip to NYC was to see her in that role and it was unforgettable!

[@bookemdano7567]

Saw Bernadette once and Patti twice at City Centre Encore and twice on Broadway. Patti’s Gypsy was the way Arthur Laurents wanted Gypsy/Rose to be because he directed himself. Patti was in best voice and Rose’s turn was the total meltdown that it should be. Although, I have to admit that Patti is a bit too shouty for repeat listening on cd, but, live, it was perfect. Bernadette gave a good performance, but, she looked and sounded like she was struggling for breath to hit the notes. Which ended up being a distraction because I kept waiting for her voice to fail.

[@DistantCousin]

Great comments. Have you seen the Imelda Staunton production?

[@GeorgeAdamo]
