KEVIN KLINE
At a press conference in New York for his upcoming movie 'The Extra Man,' Kevin Kline suggested he may be back on the boards within a year. BroadWay World's Adrienne Onofri attended the junket on Monday, and on behalf of Kline's theatre fans asked if he'd be working on stage again anytime soon. "There's something I might do this season on Broadway," Kline commented, though he didn't provide further details.
This spring, Kline participated in readings in New York of new plays by David Auburn (THE COLUMNIST) and Theresa Rebeck (POOR BEHAVIOR). When asked specifically if Kline would ever do another musical, the two-time Tony winner responded: "The problem with Broadway musicals is they're so expensive. So they need a year's commitment. And that better be a great musical because that's eight shows a week for a year.... It's unlikely you'll see me in a musical on Broadway in the near future."
Kevin Kline was last on Broadway in Cyrano de Bergerac in the 2007-2008 season. He boasts among his extensive Broadway credits The Pirates of Penzance, Henry IV, and On the Twentieth Century among nearly a dozen others. An artistic associate of The Public Theatre, Kline has appeared in the Public's productions of Shakespeare's Henry V, Richard III, and two turns as Hamlet- once in 1986 and again in 1990 where he also served as director. He has won an Academy Award, two Tony Awards and was nominated for an Emmy Award in 2009.
