I'm here to see TIME STANDS STILL again and saw Laura was out. Someone back stage told me her Father just passed away, so I doubt she will return to the show this weekend. Very very sad news. My thoughts are with her and her family today.

Her father is playwright Romulus Linney.

How sad!!! Romulus Linney was such a gifted playwright and I a remember him being interview recently on Laura's episode of Inside the Actor's Studio. My condolences go out to Laura and her family.

Condolences to the Linney family. It's difficult to lose anyone, especially someone who's had influence over a tight-knit community. May they be able to mourn their loss in peace, knowing that the support of the community is behind them.

Romulus Linney was a well-respected and successful playwright, author, professor and member of the theatre community. One would hope that he deserves to be known and mourned by his own name and not simply as Laura Linney's father.

Very sad for Laura. Especially tonight where she won the Golden Globe for The Big C. Thoughts and prayers for her and her family.

The only review of a show that matters is your own.

She was not at the Golden Globes.

She won, but was not there to accept.

Well I apologize for the title of the thread, however I was not aware of who her father was when I did so.

The award was a fitting if bittersweet tribute to the talent and professionalism Romulus Linney instilled in his family.

His work will go on through Laura's award-winning acting.

My apologies if this is crass, but is there any way to find out if Laura will be back for this evening's performance (short of heading over to the Cort)?
