My dislike of La Lupone began long back when I saw her in EVITA. Nobody I knew liked the show and all said they couldn't understand it. I remember being bored, looking at my bf's watch, checking the rafters to see if some piece of scenery hadn't dropped down. The audio was fine and maybe "The Problem Was I Could Hear Every Word." Who could miss Ms Lupone screaming over the top of it all? One of my least favorite nights at the theatre.

just to weigh in... Personally I do not dislike Patti as a performer (in many cases I absolutely love her)... I do dislike her memory and willingness to rewrite history a bit, and to throw the "male version" of Company under the bus not only unnecessarily but with an opinion I truly disagree with. Felt the need to say that as, i think, the poster responsible for this little section, and I wasn't inviting hatred of her performances (though that's certainly valid if your opinion... but just isn't usually mine -- I did not see her in Evita live on stage though, I wasn't alive -- but based on her recording she is indeed my Eva, in some ways because of her "screaming").
