From London: Nicole Kidman Headed Back to Theater

March 9, 2012 5:49 pm

Baz Bamigboye reports exclusively in the Daily Mail that Nicole Kidman is heading back to the theater. Remember last year I told you that Nicole would appear on Broadway in “Sweet Bird of Youth” with James Franco. That plan fell apart, but Nicole has been looking for another project. Now Baz reports that Kidman will appear in Terrence Rattigan’s “After the Dance” either in spring or fall of 2013 on Broadway. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2112368/BAZ-BAMIGBOYE-Nicole-Kidman-dances-stage-14-years.html. Apparently there was an excellent production in London in 2010 with a locally known actress. But producers want a name well known in America. Kidman last appeared on Broadway in “The Blue Room” fourteen years ago, to much acclaim.
