Love me some Laura Linney!

I do wonder if she will ever win a Tony. This could be a big role, who knows, but it's hard to imagine anyone defeating Jodie Comer in Prima Facie this spring.

Super interesting, considering until at least midnight today, this play had been listed as part of their Off-Broadway season. I had been wondering why they only had two shows listed for the Friedman.

Linney is probably the key to Broadway vs Off, and had a little heat from OZARK. Wonder if they will replace it on their off-B season this fall?"

Yeah, maybe so! I wonder if they were waiting on casting to decide between it and King James, which I am dying to see (on or off Broadway)

Article in Daily Mail tonight about this.

She just always seems to pick such boring plays....she is great but I'm never excited by the material...
