Sarah Paulson returns to Broadway to star in Second Stage Theater's production of *Appropriate* on Broadway in fall 2023.

Sarah Catharine Paulson is a stage and screen actress who has received Emmy, Golden Globe, and SAG Awards in her three-decade career. She was born December 17, 1974 in Tampa, Florida, but she moved to New York City in early childhood. She began her acting career right out of high school, making her Broadway debut in 1994 as an understudy in Wendy Wasserstein's *The Sisters Rosensweig*. She later took on the role of Tess Goode in the production.

She made her feature film debut in the indie thriller *Levitation*, and since then, Paulson has become a prolific screen actor. She is a regular collaborator of filmmaker and producer Ryan Murphy, appearing in multiple of his shows, including *Ratched* (as Nurse Ratched), *Impeachment: American Crime Story* (as Linda Tripp), and *The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story* (as Marcia Clark). Her performance as Clark earned her Golden Globe and Emmy Awards for Best Lead Actress.

Paulson is perhaps best known for starring in nine seasons of Murphy's *American Horror Story*, first appearing on the show in 2011. Her performances collectively earned nine Emmy Award nominations.

The actress also regularly returns to the stage. She has appeared in two other Broadway productions: 2005's *The Glass Menagerie* (as Amanda Wingfield) and 2010's *Collected Stories* (originating the role of Lisa Morrison). She has also appeared in six Off-Broadway productions between 1994 and 2013, including *Crimes of the Heart* and, most recently, the Pulitzer-nominated *Talley's Folly* with [Roundabout Theatre Company](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/harold-and-miriam-steinberg-center-for-theatre).

Her other Off-Broadway credits include *Still Life* and *Colder Than Here* at the [Lucille Lortel Theatre](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/lucille-lortel-theatre), *Killer Joe* at [SoHo Playhouse](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/soho-playhouse), and *Talking Pictures* at [Signature Theatre](https://www.newyorktheatreguide.com/theatres/pershing-square-signature-center).

In 2023, after 10 years away from the New York stage, Paulson returns to Broadway as Toni in *Appropriate*, the Broadway-debut play of Branden Jacobs-Jenkins.

Hayes Theater - TodayTix

The Hayes Theater officially opened as The Little Theatre on March 12, 1912. The building was designed by Harry Creighton Ingalls and built by Winthrop Ames, opening with John Galsworthy's play *The Pigeon*.

During the 1920s, the theatre was redesigned by Herbert J. Krapp to increase the capacity from 300 to 590. The New York Times purchased the building in 1931, converting it to a conference hall under the name of New York Times Hall.

In 1979, Martin Markinson and Donald Tick bought the theatre and renamed it in 1983 to the Helen Hayes Theatre to honor the actress. A previous theatre bearing her name was demolished in 1982 to make way for the Marriott Marquis Hotel.

On April 18, 2015, it was officially announced that Second Stage Theater had purchased the property. It was later revealed that the venue would be renamed the Hayes Theater, and it opened in spring 2018. The Hayes Theater is the smallest Broadway theatre, now with 597 seats.
