Nobody Don’t Like Yogi, Thomas Lysaght’s play about the legendary baseball player and manager Yogi Berra, will close at the Lamb’s Theatre following a special Actors’ Fund performance on Monday, January 19. As of its closing, the production will have played seven previews and 98 regular performances.

The one-man play stars Ben Gazzara in the title role.
