LOMBARDI -- THE best 90 minutes in the theater

Since joining TDF, I have been going crazy seeing one show after the other. In the last two months, I have seen Miss Abigail, La Bete, Rock of Ages, Lombardi, Viagra Falls just to name a few. Obviously from the shows mentioned, my tastes are eclectic. Lombardi was the highlight. Dan Lauria and Judith Light were amazing. Their interactions were suberb-- humorous and warm at the same time. To be honest, prior to this show, I had only know both of them as tv actors. When I left the theater, they had me convinced that they were Vince and Marie. The show itself is well written and honestly, I cannot tell you when I enjoyed a play as much as this one. Go see it!!!! It will be the best 90 minutes you will spend in any theater this year.... PS... I happen to see Mr.Lauria in a restaurant a couple of weeks after seeing the show and he also impressed me very much as a genuinely nice person......
