Maria Friedman
MARIA FRIEDMAN From musical theatre to plays, film, television, radio, concerts and recording, Maria Friedman is one of Britain?s finest actresses, with an unprecedented three Olivier Awards and seven nominations for her work in musical theatre. She won her first Olivier Award for her one-woman show Maria Friedman: By Special Arrangement at the Donmar and a second Olivier Award followed for her performance as Fosca in Passion. Her performances in Sunday in the Park With George and Lady in the Dark, both at the Royal National Theatre, earned her two more Olivier Award nominations. Other work for the stage includes Blues in the Night, April in Paris and the National Theatre?s production of Ghetto. Maria also starred in the West End as Roxie in Chicago, for which she gained another Olivier Award nomination; as Sukie in The Witches of Eastwick; Mother in Ragtime (for which she won her third Oliver Award); and last September's opening of The Woman in White, which won Maria a historic seventh Olivier nomination. She has also appeared as the Narrator in the film video of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and has made numerous recordings. Her sold-out 2003 New York cabaret debut at the Cafe Carlyle won her rave reviews and an invitation to return for another season.
