Revered actor of stage and screen, Patti LuPone has done many things in her career. She’s asked Argentina not to cry for her in Evita, dreamed a dream in Les Misérables, and baked meat pies in Sweeney Todd. Now, for the first time in her career, LuPone is taking on her latest, most challenging role as The Apologizer on Instagram.

Patti Lupone has issued an apology after making what she now describes as “demeaning and disrespectful” comments about two fellow Broadway stars in an interview with the New Yorker last week.

LuPone responded to the Broadway community's open letter that called out the star's "bullying" and "harassment."
