London, Nov 29 (ANI): Hollywood star Catherine Zeta-Jones is set to make her first appearance on Broadway next month.
The actress will make the debut with Sir Trevor Nunn's eagerly awaited revival of the Stephen Sondheim musical 'A Little Night Music'.
She made her stage debut as the lead in Annie at the Swansea Grand Theatre at 12. Now, 28 years later, the Hollywood star Catherine Zeta-Jones is again treading the boards, although in slightly more grandiose surroundings.
In the production, Zeta-Jones, who plays the part of a flamboyant actress called Desiree Armfeldt, sings one of Sondheim's most famous songs, "Send in the Clowns".
Although there have not yet been any official reviews, the preview audience left overwhelmingly positive posts on Twitter, calling the Welsh actor's performance "outstanding", "dreamy" and "magnifico".
Zeta-Jones is starring alongside the 84-year-old Angela Lansbury, who plays Armfeldt's mother.
Lansbury is returning to musical theatre for the first time since 1980.
"As long as I can do a good job I'm going to keep on going," the Guardian quoted Lansbury as saying.
According to Zeta-Jones, Lansbury is "a wonderful, open actor. I couldn't wish for a better co-star." (ANI)
