Sex and City Actresses Headed to UK Stage

Share

Those “Sex and the City” actresses can’t stop working.

I am told that Cynthia Nixon is headed to London’s West End in July to perform in “As Bees in Honey Drown.” The Tony winning actress will bring her whole brood to London and set up shop as soon as the official announcement is made. Nixon appeared in the opriginal 1997 production of “As Bees,” but not in the starring role. She’s also won a Grammy and an Emmy.

Kim Cattrall, already a West End hit with Noel Coward’s “Private Lives.” Now she’s readying “Antony and Cleopatra” for Liverpool, the city of her birth. “A and C” will open in October.

Yes, Kim was born in Liverpool but grew up in Canada near Vancouver. Maybe that’s why her accent is so good in Roman Polanski’s “The Ghost Writer.” I give Kim a lot of credit. She never stops challenging herself as an actress, and always comes out on top!
