Katie Holmes on Broadway
The AP reports on Katie Holmes Broadway debut last night in Arthur Miller’s, “All My Sons.” From reading the article you might think the performance was not the point, as the majority of the commentary revolves around what she was wearing on and off stage, as well as Tom Cruise’s appearance. The comments they got from audience members were even geared in this direction. It’s unfortunate that she has drawn attention away from an excellent play with a stellar cast. The rest of the cast includes John Lithgow as Joe Keller, Dianne Wiest as Kate Keller, and Patrick Wilson as Chris Keller. I will keep an eye out for the New York Times review. I am sure Mr. Brantley can not wait to sink his teeth into this one.
As the fans of the show know, “ER” is finishing off it’s 15th and final season on the network. To help boost ratings, some of the upcoming episodes will be featuring former characters who have left the show over it’s numerous seasons. So far the only name to leak out is Anthony Edwards who played Dr. Greene. He left the show in 2002 when his character died after a season long battle with brain cancer. As a long time off and on fan of the show, this was one of the best seasons in memory. No other names have been released, but I would assume when they are seen milling about the set on shoot days, the press will be there to report it.
