Calista Flockhart, a classically
trained stage actress who has been critically acclaimed for both her
classic and contemporary work on stage, quickly gained overnight fame as
she endeared herself to millions as the provocative and controversial
Ally McBeal. Flockhart will next be seen in the independent thriller
"Fragile," directed by Jaume Balaguero.
Most recently Flockhart returned
to her roots to star in Neil LaBute's highly praised play entitled
"Bash," for which she received outstanding reviews. Prior to
that, she appeared on Broadway as the evil and narcissistic Natasha in
Scott Elliot's production of "The Three Sisters."
Flockhart made her Broadway
debut opposite Julie Harris in "The Glass Menagerie," for
which she received the Theatre World Award and the Clarence Derwent Best
New Talent Award. Additional New York theatre credits include: Warren
Leight's "The Loop," which landed her the role of Gene
Hackman's daughter in Mike Nichols' "The Birdcage";
"Sophistry" and "Sons and Fathers," both opposite
Ethan Hawke and written by Jonathan Marc Sherman; "Wrong Turn at
Lungfish," written and directed by Garry Marshall; "All for
One," with Liev Schreiber, and Caryll Churchill's "Mad
Forest."
Regionally, Flockhart was Juliet
in "Romeo and Juliet" at The Hartford Stage, Cordelia in
"King Lear" at The Actors Theater in Louisville, Irina in
"The Three Sisters" at The Goodman Theater in Chicago, and
"Emily" in "Our Town," directed by legendary Jose
Quintero. Summers at the Williamstown Theater Festival and the Berkshire
Theater Festival featured her in "Death Takes a Holiday,"
opposite Christopher Reeve, and "Jitta's Atonement," opposite
Dianne Wiest.
