The red carpet for the 83rd Golden Globe Awards will be down one high(-flying) fashion star as “Wicked” lead Cynthia Erivo will miss the ceremony due to her upcoming production of “Dracula” on the West End.

Erivo, already a Tony winner for “The Color Purple,” stars in the highly anticipated one-woman stage adaptation of the Gothic horror story, playing 23 characters, including Dracula. The play, from adaptor and director Kip Williams, goes into previews on February 4. With the team currently deep into production in London, producers are unable to free her to attend the ceremony in Los Angeles.

In “Wicked: For Good,” Erivo delivers a soaring performance as the green-skinned young witch, garnering a fifth Golden Globe nomination. She was previously recognized for “Harriet,” a double nominee for her portrayal of Harriet Tubman and for best original song; “Genius: Aretha,” where she portrayed Aretha Franklin; and the first “Wicked” film.See full article at Variety - Film News
