Katie Holmes to star on Broadway in first acting project since split from Tom Cruise

Reviews for her work in Arthur Miller’s classic 1947 All My Sons were mixed,
with The Associated Press saying Holmes “has a striking physical
presence, although not much vocal variety” and USA Today saying At
best, she exhibits a girlish exuberance that could serve her well in certain
stage roles.

The new Rebeck play, which had its world premiere at the Cincinnati Playhouse
this winter, will open on Broadway this year at the Music Box Theatre. Dates
and other casting news will be announced later.

Dead Accounts centres on a son who returns to his family’s home in Cincinnati
flush with money, which raises red flags for his sister, who is living with
their elderly parents. Holmes will play the sister role, a
not-very-glamorous part for a woman who has lately landed on the cover of
every tabloid.

Producers in a statement said the comedy “tackles the timely issues of
corporate greed, small town values and whether or not your family will
always welcome you back.”

Holmes’ announcement comes on the heels of word earlier this month that she
and her soon-to-be-former husband had reached a divorce agreement. She and
Cruise were married in Italy in 2006 and they have a 6-year-old daughter,
Suri.

Rebec, who was a driving force in the first season of NBC’s Smash, has written
several plays, including the recent Broadway hits Seminar and Mauritius.
