Broadway stops!

I'm not a big Broadway fan. But I think it would have been fun to see this show.

Patti LuPone went nuclear the other night during her Broadway production of "Gypsy". An audience member was taking pictures during the show. Patti noticed and stopped the show to let them have it.

Unknown to her, someone else was recording the audio of all this on their cell phone. Which of course is also wrong. But that's far better than a camera flash.

Here's the audio of the whole thing. The volume's low, but it's better than nothing.

Now I hate to make fun of this, because Patti LuPone was so right calling that audience member out and then getting them thrown out of the theatre. But here's another video on YouTube that's so clever, I had to share it with you. It's a "remix" of the incident called "LuPWNed!".
