After Tuck Everlasting's sadly short stint on Broadway, Carolee Carmello is returning to Finding Neverland on the Great White Way. The three-time Tony nominee will take over for Sally Ann Triplett as Madame du Maurier on July 5; the Broadway.com Audience Choice Award-winning musical is set to shutter at the Lunt-Fontanne Theatre on August 21.
Carmello earned Tony nominations for her performances in Parade, Lestat and Scandalous.
Directed by Diane Paulus and featuring a score by Gary Barlow and Eliot Kennedy and a book by James Graham, Finding Neverland follows the story of J.M. Barrie and his relationship with the family of widow Sylvia Llewelyn Davies. Llewelyn Davies' children eventually became Barrie's inspiration to write Peter Pan.
The cast currently also includes Tony Yazbeck as J.M. Barrie, Laura Michelle Kelly as Sylvia Llewelyn Davies, Paul Slade Smith as Charles Frohman and Dana Costello as Mary Barrie.
