Patti LuPone – Matters Of The Heart

Three-time Tony Award® winner PATTI LUPONE will perform her critically acclaimed theatrical concert MATTERS OF THE HEART at the London Coliseum on 14 & 15 February 2027.
Ms LuPone celebrated the 25th Anniversary of the Broadway engagement at the Beaumount Theatre with the launch of the tour in January.
On returning to London Ms. LuPone said: “Performing my show “A Life in Notes” at the London Coliseum in 2025 was a special night that I remember dearly. I can’t wait to come back with “Matters of the Heart,” which I first performed in 1999. And it’s Valentine’s Day, Dolls. Will you be my Valentine?”
In MATTERS OF THE HEART LuPone takes the audience on an exploration of the crimes, affairs and the mysteries of the heart, with electrifying performances of over two dozen love songs ranging from Broadway favourites to works by today’s top contemporary songwriters.
The show is based on the CD recording of the same name which was released in 1999 and named one of the best recordings of the year by both The Times and Time Out in New York.
MATTERS OF THE HEART is conceived and directed by Scott Wittman, with musical direction and arrangements by Joseph Thalken and features the Four Play String Quartet.

### **The history of the London Coliseum**
Opened in 1904, the London Coliseum was designed by legendary theatre architect Frank Matcham with the goal of being “the people’s palace of entertainment.” It was one of the most technically advanced theatres of its time, boasting a revolving stage and a lavishly decorated auditorium.
Originally intended for music hall and variety performances, the Coliseum transitioned into a major venue for film screenings and wartime entertainment before becoming the permanent home of the English National Opera in 1968. Over the years, it has also hosted ballet, plays, and large-scale musicals including Chess, Bat Out of Hell, and Hairspray.
The theatre’s striking Baroque façade, topped with a distinctive revolving globe, and its lavish Edwardian interior make it a landmark in London’s theatrical landscape.
