It's rare to walk into a Broadway theater surrounded by a swarm of big, burly men in suits. So when I entered the Circle in the Square Theater to see Lombardi, I knew something would be different. With the stage set up in the round, and not a single "bad" seat available, Lombardi stars Dan Lauria from "The Wonder Years" as famed Green Bay Packers head coach Vince Lombardi and Judith Light, most recently from "Ugly Betty," as his wife Marie. Following the premise of a young sports journalist trying to write a Pulitzer Prize winning story on the football coach, the audience learns a great deal about both the professional and home lives of Lombardi and his families, because as the show states, he truly loved his players.
I'm not a huge sports fan, but I love a good sports movie, and if you're the same, you will appreciate this show. Of course those big, burly men in the theater came because they love football, so ladies, this is your chance to get your man to a Broadway show!
One lucky reader will receive two tickets to see Lombardi on a night of his or her choosing. The tickets must be picked up at the box office the day of the show.
