Just caught the matinee of Lombardi and was blown away by her performance. Curious to hear if anyone out there saw her Nora and Hedda.

Always loved her, but had no idea she was such a talent!

Didn't catch her Nora and Hedda, but was at Lombardi on opening night and agree that she was absolutely wonderful.

My wife and I both thoroughly enjoyed the show, and neither of us has any interest in Football whatsoever.

I took my father and, like you, I know nothing about and could care less about football. But I was engrossed by Lauria and Light -- WONDERFUL acting.

Judith Light was marvelous in WIT.

"What do you want me to say, Mr. Callison? That I was a common prostitute???"

With that performance, Judith Light became one of my favorite actors of all time.

THANK YOU. Having first seen her onstage about 13 years ago, she's been my favorite stage actress ever since. If I had a choice between seeing her or Meryl Streep in something, I'd choose Judith every single time. And the funny thing is thst when I tell people they find it hard to believe, so people who discover her make me happy. :)

I've been dying to see Judith in anything. I might have to take a trip up to see Lombardi.

Since I can no longer get my Judith fix from Ugly Betty.

I truly had no idea she was such a force to be reckoned with. So much more theater to see before the Tony's, but I'm hoping she's a strong contender!
