Oil Grammer to debut on Broadway
December 03, 2009 Edition 1
LOS ANGELES: Emmy award-winning actor Kelsey Grammer will make his Broadway musical debut in April playing the gay owner of a transvestite club in the revival of La Cage aux Folles.
Grammer, known best for playing Dr Frasier Crane on the TV comedies Cheers and its spin-off, Frasier, had recently starred in and produced the TV comedy Hank, which was cancelled earlier this month after less than one season.
"I had a wonderful experience playing Henry Higgins in the New York Philharmonic My Fair Lady in 2007, which made me long to perform in a musical on Broadway," Grammer said.
La Cage aux Folles is based on a 1973 French play. A 1983 Broadway musical comedy, based on a 1978 film adaptation, played for more than four years. - Reuters
