but she's not going to be in Shakespeare's
Antony and Cleopatra....instead, she'll be in George Bernard Shaw's
Caesar and Cleopatra! I was actually confused at first, because there's a separate Shaw festival at Niagra-on-the-Lake. Julius Caesar will be played by Christopher Plummer (Captain von Trapp from Sound of Music)
Quote:
Dreamgirls star Anika Noni Rose will play opposite acting legend Christopher Plummer in Caesar and Cleopatra at the Stratford Shakespeare Festival next year.
Rose, 34, a classically trained actor who won a Tony award in 2004 for her role in Broadway's Caroline, or Change, starred opposite Beyoncé Knowles and Jennifer Hudson in the Dreamgirls movie last year.
