Ben Rimalower: Patti Issues

Celebrate the Tony Awards and seven-time nominee, musical theater diva Patti LuPone with Patti Issues, the acclaimed solo play from writer and performer Ben Rimalower. When Ben was eight years old, his father came out of the closet and left his family in tatters. Amid the chaos of his young life, Ben found comfort—like so many gay boys before him—in musical theater, and specifically in the transportive voice of Broadway star Patti LuPone.
