I was just thinking of her yesterday and saying to a friend I hoped she would be back soon. One of the greatest stage actresses working today, I'm thrilled!!!!!!

Kathleen Turner? As a recovering alcoholic nun? From the team that brought us Looped?
CAMP HEAVEN!

Posted: 2/17/10 at 9:20pmThis sounds about as gay-friendly as Adam Lambert wearing a Bob Mackie gown while doing a medley of Liberace's greatest hits on Rosie's family cruise.

Posted: 2/17/10 at 9:27pmThis article is written kind of weirdly. Kathleen Turner has already scheduled her return to the stage. She is appearing in a world premiere play about the columnist and author Molly Ivins in Philadelphia starting next month.

Posted: 2/18/10 at 1:36pmI'm more anxious to see the performance she gives at the stage door. She was so outright nasty to people (not me) when I saw her after "The Graduate."

Posted: 2/18/10 at 10:34pmShe was actually very sweet at the stage door of "Virginia Woolf."

Posted: 2/18/10 at 11:10pmKathleen Turner is one of the worlds sweetest women to her fans at the stage door. I won't have her name dragged through the mud. I luvs her.

HIGH will be premiered at the St. Louis Repertory Theatre, and is being advertised as "Pre-Broadway Run Starring Kathleen Turner"

It opened last week. A vast improvement over Looped. The part is tailor-made for Turner, with Michael Berresse (as a priest!) and Evan Jonigkeit as a hustler/drug addict rounding out the cast to make for a very compelling ensemble. Well worth the trip.

Posted: 8/3/10 at 1:33pmHow can the St. Louis Rep. Theatre claim their production starting October 13 is a "World Premier" when the Hartford TheatreWorks production which began July 2 is also referred to as a "World Premier"?

Good question. A world premier is a world premier, and this one was in CT.
