All hail Marsha Mason

At the opening night of “King Lear” in Central Park, Marsha Mason — the four-time Oscar-nominated actress once married to Neil Simon — was getting a hero’s welcome from her peers.

The crowd included Cynthia Nixon, F. Murray Abraham, America Ferrera and Bob Balaban.

The sexy septuagenarian has become an expert at natural beauty. For the past two decades, she’s been growing medicinal herbs on her 247-acre farm near Abiquiú, N.M., and selling them wholesale.

Mason reportedly sold the farm earlier this year for $6.2 million.

Maybe she’s moving back to Manhattan.

At the party after John Lithgow and Annette Bening’s performance, Mason looked fit as a fiddle and ready for a New York play.
