Holly Byrnes, The Daily Telegraph, reports
She sharpened her comedy claws as the
deliciously catty Karen Walker on the hit US comedy series Will & Grace.
Now actress Megan Mullally is bringing her one-woman cabaret show to
Australia, as part of the Sydney Mardi Gras festival.
The Emmy winner has long promised to bring back the character she played
in the series (1998 to 2006). And her show, An Evening With Megan Mullally,
also taps into the musical highlights of her career (accompanied by friend and
pianist Seth Rudetsky).
Their cheeky banter between songs has been likened to the unforgettable
schtick with her Will & Grace co-star Sean Hayes (as Karen's best friend
Jack McFarland).
Mullally, who has been starring opposite her husband Nick Offerman in TV
series Parks And Recreation, will make her first trip to Australia, with dates
at Sydney Theatre on February 22 and 23 and Melbourne's The Forum on February
24).
"It's a place I've always wanted to visit and I can't wait to meet
my Aussie fans - we're going to have a whole lot of fun together,"
Mullally said.
Meanwhile, it's understood efforts to secure The Spice Girls for a Mardi
Gras appearance have been unsuccessful.
Tickets (from $85) are on sale from 9am today via Sydney Theatre and
Ticketmaster.
