Holland Taylor is GREAT in Person

Sometimes you see someone in a play who isn't as good as he or she is on TV.
.
In the case of the cast below, Buck Henry comes to mind. He is a lot older and less funny than you want him to be.
.
Holland Taylor.
!!!!
.

We sat 3rd row and watched "Mother" in a TINY theater for a very very limited run. It was a 75 minute show, that was very good, but very little story. More a New Year's Eve dinner shared with family.
.
But Holland Taylor... Kids, Holland Taylor actually looks better in person than she does in Two and a Half Men. Impossible! And she was freakin' razor sharp in her delivery.
.
It was a GREAT evening!!! (Albeit, kind of a not much of a show.).
.
ps - We sat next to Anita Gillette and her friend and talked to her before the show. Anita Gillette was that "some piece of work.." Mona in Moonstruck!
