Cate Blanchett is no stranger to the stage, just the Broadway stage. Yes, you read that right. The highly acclaimed stage and screen star has yet appear as a performer on Broadway. That is until now. Cate Blanchett is finally making her long waiting debut alongside Richard Roxburgh in 'The Present'. So what is The Present you ask? Written by Cate Blanchett’s very own husband, acclaimed playwright Andrew Upton, 'The Present' is based on Anton Chekhov's first play, which while technically untitled is often called 'Platonov.' Originating in Blanchett's native Australia and first performed at The Sydney Theater Company, 'The Present' is making its way on over to the Big Apple this fall/winter.
