In 2019 Judith Light, one of the most beloved members of the Broadway community, was awarded the Isabelle Stevenson special Tony Award for her fierce advocacy on behalf of those affected by HIV AIDS and the LGBTQ+ community. Her passion for the causes she believes in , her fierce loyalty to the community she loves and her incredible passion for the arts has made her an inspiration for so many. Her ability to portray roles with her singular talent has made her an actress that every director is honored to work with. She is also one of a very few actors to win back to back Tonys – she won for The Assembled Parties and Other Desert Series.
After decades in Los Angeles she came back to New York uncertain of her place in the theater community- I think we know how that turned out! Welcome Judith Light to AND THE AWARD GOES TO…
