Grey's Anatomy Star Chandra Wilson Joins "CHICAGO" as 'Mama Morton' 6/8

Well being a huge Grey's Anatomy fan, you can imagine how excited I was to hear that Dr. Bailey is coming back to Broadway for a limited time to co-star in "Chicago-The Musical". This is one talented actress who is part of a great acting ensemble on TV and I'm sure will give a great performance on stage. Three-time Emmy Award nominee and "Grey's Anatomy" star Chandra Wilson steps into the celebrated role of Matron "Mama" Morton, the reigning cell block diva of the smash hit musical CHICAGO, for a four-week limited engagement, Monday, June 8 through Sunday, July 5, 2009 at the Ambassador Theatre (219 W. 49th St.). For her critically-acclaimed portrayal of Dr. Miranda Bailey on "Grey's Anatomy," Wilson has earned not only three Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series, but also a Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series, a second Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Drama Series Ensemble and three NAACP Image Awards.
Now celebrating more than twelve glorious years of girls, glitz and glamour on the Great White Way, on Tuesday, March 24 the record-breaking smash hit musical CHICAGO will become the seventh longest-running production in Broadway history (surpassing Rent with 5,125 total performances to-date) ... and it still shows no sign of ever slowing down!
The record-breaking London production of CHICAGO continues to hold the record as the longest-running American musical in West End history. CHICAGO is also currently on tour throughout the U.S. and Canada, with international tours to commence in Australia and the United Kingdom this month (March 2009).
