Two-time Tony winner Patti LuPone will be the focus of a career retrospective interview for the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts’ film on tape archive on June 3. Broadway.com Senior Editor Kathy Henderson is set to chat with LuPone during the hour-long event, which begins at 6:00PM and is free to the public on a first come, first served basis.

A popular concert and recording artist, LuPone is set to return to 54 Below on July 18 in her acclaimed evening “Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda… (Played That Part).”
