Fresh off a well-reviewed turn in “Lee Daniels‘ The Butler,” Oprah Winfrey is in talks to make her Broadway debut in a revival of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play “‘Night, Mother,” the New York Times reports.
A representative for Winfrey did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
Broadway veteran George C. Wolfe is expected to direct the production, which will star fellow Tony Award winner Audra McDonald as a mother desperate to prevent her daughter from killing herself.
