Producers Darren Bell and Cuffe & Taylor are delighted to announce that 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 2026. 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. Ms. LuPone went on to perform MATTERS OF THE HEART in London’s West End, and tour dates nationally and internationally.
On returning to London Ms. LuPone said: “Performing my show “A Life in Notes” at the 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 at the Donmar Warehouse 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 favorites to works by today’s top contemporary songwriters.
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.
PATTI LUPONE is a three-time Tony Award winner for her performances as Joanne in Marianne Elliott’s gender-swapped award-winning production of the Stephen Sondheim-George Furth musical Company, Madame Rose in the 2008 Broadway revival of the Jule Styne-Stephen Sondheim-Arthur Laurents classic Gypsy and the title role in the original Broadway production of the Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice production of Evita.
Ms. LuPone launched her concert career in 1980 at New York City’s legendary nightclub Les Mouches, performing late-night on Saturdays for 27-weeks, while also performing in Evita. Since then, she has continued to tour extensively, captivating audiences across North America, London’s West End, Australia, and Broadway. Her celebrated concert repertoire includes Don’t Monkey with Broadway, Far Away Places, A Life in Notes, and the upcoming 2026 tour of Matters of the Heart, marking the 25th anniversary of that beloved show.
