"Eric Simonson has given us an extremely well-crafted piece of intelligent middlebrow theater, a regular-guy equivalent of Frost/Nixon. A good one for the guys. It is both tasty and filling. I know nothing about football and less about the Green Bay Packers, but LOMBARDI held my attention from start to finish, and when it was over, I went home feeling properly entertained." Terry Teachout, The Wall Street Journal

"A fantastic production!" Star Ledger

"A rare Broadway drama that's also a real crowd-pleaser." AOL

"Sports fans will get a huge kick out of the it, but there's plenty for the uninitiated as well. As entertainment, LOMBARDI scores points." Roma Torre, NY1

"You don't need to be a football fan to enjoy Lombardi." ABC News

"LOMBARDI presents a great opportunity for female theater-goers to get their husbands to see a Broadway play. But it's more than that." Craig Ellenport, NFL.com
