Holmes Returns to Braodway in 'Dead Accounts' Ms. Holmes, 33, will return to Broadway this fall to star in the new family comedy “Dead Accounts” by Theresa Rebeck, a Pulitzer Prize finalist whose play “Seminar” was an audience favorite on Broadway last season.
Ms. Holmes will portray a fairly unglamorous character, Lorna, who is living with her aging parents in Cincinnati while trying to pull together her life (which includes being on a diet). “Dead Accounts,” which had its world premiere at the Cincinnati Playhouse in the Park last winter, also focuses on one of her siblings, a prodigal son who returns home with secrets, including a load of new money and a missing wife.
The Tony Award winner Jack O’Brien (“The Coast of Utopia,” “Hairspray”) is directing the five-character play, which will run at the Music Box Theater.
Ms. Holmes, who made her Broadway debut in 2008 in a revival of Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons,” as the love interest Ann, declined an interview request on Thursday, but said in a statement, “I am thrilled to be coming back to the Broadway community and honored to be a part of this team.”
Performance dates and casting for the four other roles will be announced shortly. SOURCE
