Patti LuPone doing community theater?! Well, sort of. Douglas Carter Beane’s new semi-autobiographical comedy Shows For Days takes audience members inside the wacky world of regional theater in Reading, Pennsylvania, featuring the two-time Tony winner alongside Michael Urie, Dale Soules, Lance Coadie Williams, Jordan Dean and Zoe Winters. Broadway.com resident artist Justin “Squigs” Robertson took a trip to Lincoln Center to sketch LuPone and the cast in action. Check out his new work of art, then see Shows For Days at off-Broadway’s Mitzi E. Newhouse Theatre.
About the Artist: With a desire to celebrate the magic of live theater and those who create it, and with a deep reverence for such touchstones as the work of Al Hirschfeld and the wall at Sardi’s, Squigs is happy and grateful to be among those carrying on the traditions where theater and caricature meet. He was born and raised in Oregon, lived in Los Angeles for quite a long time and now calls New York City his home.
