In the new trailer for Before You Know It, Broadway star and fan favorite Judith Light wears no less than four outfits, including a white fur wrap and a mod bob wig.
The comedy, written by and starring Hannah Pearl Utt and Jen Tullock, follows two adult sisters as they find out their mother is not dead, as they thought. Light plays their very-much-alive soap opera star mother, complete with over-the-top costumes and an array of wigs.
In a case of art imitating life, Light broke into the mainstream with her performance on ABC’s soap opera One Life to Live in the '70s and '80s. She’s since gone on to become a two-time Tony Award–winning Broadway mainstay, most recently receiving the Isabelle Stevenson Tony Honor for her contribution to theatre.
Broadway stars Mandy Patinkin and Alec Baldwin also appear in the film alongside Mike Coulter (Netflix’s Luke Cage), with Utt pulling triple duty as the director.
