Denzel Returning To Broadway
Denzel Washington will return to Broadway in a revival of “Fences,†the Pulitzer Prize-winning August Wilson play. Washington has closed a deal to play Maxson family patriarch Troy Maxson, a role originated by James Earl Jones. Kenny Leon (“A Raisin in the Sunâ€) is negotiating to direct. Who will play opposite Washington? (Angela Bassett is an obvious choice.)
