"A press agent actually put a sign up that there was only one diva allowed in this theater at a time," LuPone said. "It wasn't me. It was the press agent that did it. I don't know whether [Madonna] ever found out about it. I did meet her after her opening night party and the only thing that Madonna has ever said to me is, 'I'm taller than you.'"
