Kerry Washington is all about “Race”

Posted by Bossip Staff

Kerry Washington is finally gettin’ her feet wet in the world of theater. Ole girl is going to rep her acting chops on Broadway in the play “Race” by famed playwright David Mamet.

*Kerry Washington has joined Emmy Award winners Richard Thomas and James Spader in the cast of David Mamet’s Broadway play “Race.”

The play is scheduled to begin previews on November 17 at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre and will open on December 6.

Mamet, who wrote and will direct the production, has been secretive about what his play is about. Since its announcement last spring, no official information about the storyline has been revealed.

Washington has starred in the films “The Last King of Scotland” and “Ray.” Her screen credits also include “Life Is Hot in Cracktown,” “Lakeview Terrace,” “Woman in Burka,” “Put It in a Book” “I Think I Love My Wife,” “The Dead Girl,” “Little Man,” “Boston Legal,” “Wait,” “Sexual Life,” “Against the Ropes,” “The Human Stain” and “Bad Company,” among others.

Race will mark her Broadway debut.

We’re sure she’ll do well. Much better than Ashanti’s non-acting @ss.

    I just watched Kerry in “The Dead Girl” , she played a cracked out hooker latina , she is the ***** she can act her tail off. Now for the Ashanti comment I have seen her in a few things I think she can one day rise up and be considered along with the greats , even some of the greats had some wack starting roles, give the girl a chance Bossip quit hating on the black community it is so counterproductive.

    I love stage plays. I think that Kerry is a superb actress who will do well on Broadway. To me, live performance separates those who are really talented from “studio” artists. Now, when Kerry does Shakespeare (like Fishburn, Denzel and other have done), then I’ll be really impressed.


  14. @TB–r u 4real??she’s gorgeous w/ natural beauty. and she actually has talent compared to some other non-talented broads who i won’t name,ahem(coughing rihanna).oops!

  15. wash ya *****

    after she finishes doing broadway , she will even be a better actress. pacino and dinero started on the stage, that’s where you hone your acting skills…. good move


  16. go here for unity!

  17. T.S.

    And she ain’t just doing any stage production, it’s David Mamet.

    Seriously folks, if you get casted in a Mamet production, you’ve got major acting skills.
