With plum roles on THE WHITE LOTUS and THE GILDED AGE, now feels like the perfect time for her to return to the stage. 

Frankly, I’d be more than happy to see her take on a revival, but I’d also be thrilled to see her try something new. (She would be a great Barbara in AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY - and would’ve been a fantastic replacement for Sarah Paulson in APPROPRIATE.) 

Any other roles you’d dream cast her in?

I was about to say the exact same dang thing.

I saw her in Mary Jane at NYTW heats ago and really loved her. Now she’s killing it on TV, but should definitely make a NY stage comeback.

Her performance in Virginia Woolf is one of the best I've ever seen. It was even better at Steppenwolf on a more intimate stage.

I'd love to see her husband write something wonderful for the both of them.

She was fantastic in Bug at Steppenwolf a few years back. Definitely should be a Tracy Letts play, perhaps a new work?

I mean....she would be sublime in that rumored All-woman Glengarry cast as Roma or Moss.

How about Amanda in the revival of Private Lives recently announced?

There is no doubt in my mind that David Cromer's production of Bug would have transferred, Carrie Coon gave one of the best performances I've seen on stage, along with the great Chicago actor Namir Smallwood (Currently onstage at Steppenwolf in The Book of Grace). The night we went Tracy was actually there, I am curious what it feels like to have your wife in one of your own plays, and in such a raw, vulnerable part. Next season is Steppenwolf's 50th season and I was hoping either one would come back to do something, but sadly neither is.
