  ‘‘"An Evening With Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin" is glorious an intimate, affectionate, restrained but never boring lovefest between great old friends and great musical theater.... The song list is bliss - plenty from Stephen Sondheim, and Rodgers and Hammerstein works that the duo is too old now to get cast in, with spots of novelty, ingeniously overlapping medleys and just enough recap of their hits we feared we'd never hear them sing, or sing this well, again."’’

  ‘‘“Some enchanted evening. The heat that emanates from An Evening With Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin is smoldering and intense. The stars breathe new life into songs we thought we knew.”’’

  ‘‘“Pure theater pleasure. The twosome in question are a pair of stage royalty. The power-couple concert shimmers with charm, magic and a genuine chummy closeness. They’re in strong voice, charismatic and commanding.”’’

  ‘‘“Oh, that’s how it’s done! That’s how songs by Sondheim and Kern or Rodgers and Hammerstein should sound. That’s how two performers can keep you spellbound.”’’

  ‘‘ “Sublime. A celebration of and master class in musical acting. A show that should not be missed by anyone who still believes in great musical storytelling – or anyone who has stopped believing in it, for that matter.”’’
