LuPone’s harsh words on the two Tony winners in an interview with The New Yorker shocked fans and colleagues in the theater world.

LuPone, 76, was starring in The Roommate opposite Tony-nominated Mia Farrow earlier in the Broadway season when she took issue with the loudness of their neighboring show, the Alicia Keys jukebox musical, Hell’s Kitchen. The sound was reportedly bleeding through from theater-to-theater, causing an issue for LuPone.

Actress Patti LuPone is facing backlash online for her latest interview, where she blatantly shades two Black Broadway stars.
