Move over, Oscar and Felix. Here comes Patti LuPone and Mia Farrow in 'The Roommate.'
Roughly two years ago, right after she scored a major triumph as Joanne in “Company,” LuPone dramatically announced that she had given up her membership in Actors’ Equity Association , which raised the question of whether LuPone would ever perform on Broadway again in a play or musical.The good news is that LuPone is back on Broadway .
When a publicity photo of the pair in costume was released on the eve of previews, social media users joked that LuPone and Farrow looked like older versions of Rizzo and Sandy from ‘Grease.'” While one can appreciate the play’s focus on older single women, as well as its suggestions of the search for meaning and emotional connection, “The Roommate” is roughly the equivalent of Neil Simon’s female version of “The Odd Couple” or something else you would sooner encounter in community theater than on Broadway.
