Honestly, she looks better bald...

I wonder if she saw the original with Kathleen or when Judith Light replaced kathleen?

why is she bald

@theothersituation The character she played is fighting cancer, so she lost her hair due to the treatment. It is a wonderful play. There is a HBO production of Wit starring Emma Thompson and Audra McDonold. I loved it very much, but I really want to see it on stage.

@theothersituation Because her character has cancer, so she probably decided to just shave her head rather than mess with her hair every night....

Our school did this play and the actors were superb, I'm so glad it's come to Broadway :)
