Katie Holmes To Star On Broadway
Katie Holmes will be starring in the Broadway show “All My Sons” along with Patrick Wilson and John Lithgow. The show’s producers confirmed the news this week.
Manhattan’s Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre will be the site of the production, which will begin rehearsals in August, open for previews on Sept. 18 and run from Oct. 16 to Jan. 11.
The Arthur Miller play, based on a true story, premiered in 1947. It ran for 328 performances and won a Tony Award for Best Play and Tony Award for Best Direction of a Play (Elia Kazan).
Lithgow will portray the central character, Joe Keller, who (before the play begins) directly contributes to the deaths of several American World War II pilots by selling the U.S. military damaged airplane components. He frames his business partner, Steven Deever, whose daughter will be played by Holmes, 29.
