Broadway legends Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin, who co-starred on Broadway in the original Evita in 1979, will bring their touring concert act, 'An Evening,' to the Royal Alexandra Theatre in Toronto from February 9 - February 14, 2010.
In this once-in-a-lifetime theatrical event, 'An Evening' with Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin reunites these Tony Award®-winning virtuosos (and lifelong friends) for the first time since Evita. Much more than a concert, this is a unique musical love story told entirely through some of the most famous songs written for the stage.
The show is choreographed by fellow Broadway veteran and friend, Ann Reinking, who won a Best Choreography Tony Award® for the revival of Chicago. An Evening with Patti LuPone & Mandy Patinkin is accompanied on piano by Mandy Patinkin's longtime pianist, Paul Ford.
This performance will come after Patinkin's run at Yale Rep in Compulsion, directed by Oskar Eustis. Additional tour dates for LuPone and Patinkin include: January 30 at the Von Braun Civic Center in Huntsville, AL; Febebruary 6 at the Proctors Theatre in Schenectady, NY; February 27 at EJ Thomas Hall in Akron, OH; March 2-7 at the Cadillac Palace Theatre in Chicago, IL; March 19-20 at the McCallum Theatre in Palm Desert, CA; and March 25 at the Long Center in Austin, TX.
