Katie Holmes will make her Broadway debut this autumn in a revival of Arthur Miller’s “All My Sons,” Reuters reported Monday. The actress, best known for her role on the WB melodrama “Dawson’s Creek,” and, more recently, for marrying Tom Cruise, will star alongside Oscar winner Dianne Wiest and Tony winner John Lithgow.
Based on a true story, “All My Sons” details the life of a successful businessman who knowingly sold the government defective airplane parts during World War II, possibly causing his own son’s death. When it was first performed on Broadway in 1947, “All My Sons” won Tony Awards for the playwright and the director, Elia Kazan. The new production is scheduled to open this fall, but neither a theater nor a date has been announced yet.
