In a two-night only affair, Kate Walsh is set to make her Broadway debut this week.
The Grey’s Anatomy alum is joining the ever-rotating cast of celebrity guest stars in the limited presentation of Celebrity Autobiography, which is currently playing at the Shubert Theatre in New York City.
Created by Eugene Pack and Dayle Reyfel, the 90-minute-ish production features a selection of “today’s biggest stars [from] TV, film and stage, sports, and, yes, even politics” to act out other celebs’ memoirs, mixing improv with mash-ups of a variety of autobiographies to create “wildly different takes on the same experience.”
On Thursday, June 11, Walsh joins Bonnie Comely, Tate Donovan, Gina Gershon, Leslie Rodriguez Kritzer, Stewart Lane, Ralph Macchio, Phil Rosenthal, Pack and Reyfel for two shows. On Friday, June 12, she performs one show with Matthew Broderick, Mario Cantone, Alexander Dreymon, Allison Williams, Rita Wilson, Donovan, Gershon, Macchio, Pack, Rodriguez Kritzer, Reyfel and Rosenthal.
“Can’t wait 😍😍😍😍,” Walsh wrote excitedly in the comments, and fans were in undeniable agreement over the unexpected news.
One proudly gushed, “Broadway is lucky to have you for these two nights! 🥹❤️ Your talent and energy make everything shine. Have the most amazing time, Kate! ✨🎭.”
“omg, that’s incredible! i’m so excited!! 😍✨️❤️,” another praised, with someone else concurring, “this is so amazing i love you kate😭❤️.”
Others applauded her for being “effortlessly funny,” pointing out how perfect it sounds for her.
“This sounds so fun ❤️,” someone else added.
“absolutely need this !🙌🔥,” another declared, with another fan dramatically replying, “pinch me rn pinch me rn pinch me rn.”
The only bad thing about the news from fans’ point of view was how short-lived the role would be, with one lamenting, “wish I could be there! so proud of you kate ❤️.”
Fans across the pond are crossing their fingers to catch the actress on another storied stage, hoping, “west end next please x.”
Celebrity Autobiography has had turns across the globe, including New York’s Triad Theatre, The Groundlings Los Angeles, London’s West End Leicester Theatre, Edinburgh, Australia’s Sydney Opera House, and more, so perhaps that marks a good omen for a West End debut, next?
