HATHAWAY TO TACKLE SHAKESPEARE IN DRAG
Oscar nominee ANNE HATHAWAY is set to cross-dress this summer (Jun09) in a bid to fool royalty in an open-air production of SHAKESPEARE’s TWELTH NIGHT.
The actress has signed on to play Viola, who spends most of the play disguised as a man, in the month-long production at Central Park’s Delacorte Theater in New York.
Hathaway will make her Central Park acting debut on 9 June (09).
But it’s not the first time the actress has performed on the New York stage - in 2002 she starred in a concert production of the musical Carnival!.
Ironically, William Shakespeare’s own wife was also named Anne Hathaway.
