The off-Broadway
revival of Jay Presson Allen's The Prime of Miss Jean
Brodie starring Tony award-winner Cynthia
Nixon has been extended until December 9, reports
Playbill.com. The production, which was originally set to
finish its run November 11, will begin on October 9 at
the Acorn Theater in Theatre Row.
Nixon, who is best known as Miranda Hobbes from
the hit HBO series Sex and the City, won a Tony award
for her performance in the Broadway run of David
Lindsay-Abaire's Rabbit Hole last season. The
Prime of Miss Jean Brodie is based on the 1961
Muriel Spark novel of the same name, which follows a
colorful teacher who arrives at a Scottish girls'
school in the 1930s.
