Sarah Jessica Parker To Star in 'Boeing Boeing' on Broadway#1

Posted: 2/27/08 at 7:06am

According to imdb.com Sarah Jessica Parker is to star in 'Boeing Boeing' on Broadway.

"Sarah Jessica Parker is set to tread the boards in New York - as an Italian air hostess. The 42-year-old will take on the role of a flight attendant in the Broadway version of hit comedy Boeing Boeing, which is currently running in London. Parker will appear in the play at New York's Longacre Theatre from April - and insists she is still determined to explore a variety of roles because she doesn't want to become typecast. She says, "Everything I've done since Sex And The City ended on TV has been completely different."

I guess IMDb didn't pick up on the retraction WENN printed last night.

I hadn't heard about the retraction. Has this news not been confirmed yet, or did they jump the gun on publishing the story?

Haven't heard of the retraction either, but her "official" involvement with the project was posted earlier yesterday... BY ME.

I can't see her doing this project. If the main reason she left SATC was to spend more time with her son, why on earth would she do a Broadway show and do 8 shows a week?

The only review of a show that matters is your own.

BC filming a show has longer hours than doing a play. it is a 3 hour a day gig. Plus she was the executive producer of satc, she said had two jobs.

Ugh...I'm sick of celebrities coming on broadway to get good ticket sales. Notice how they all suck?

LittleFall, SJP is hardly stunt casting. She's been on Broadway before and has always delivered a delightful performance.

She's definitely not doing it. She passed on the project immediately after it was offered to her. Updated On: 2/28/08 at 12:14 AM

I assume she can't commit to a theater project that runs through May given the fact she is gonna have to do lots of promotion, do the talk show circuit, and premieres for the SEX & THE CITY movie.
