The stage will be star-studded this fall with big name celebrities flocking to up their theater cred on Broadway and the West-End. Some of the names you can see here and abroad are:

Jeremy Piven playing a producer torn between making art or making money in a Broadway revival of David Mamet’s Speed the Plow. The original production starred Madonna in 1988.

Peter Sarsgaard will be making his Broadway debut alongside Kristin Scott Thomas and Zoe Kazan in Anton Chekhov’s The Seagull about a bunch of artists living on a Russian estate -- and well, use your imagination about what happens there.

Katie Holmes will attempt to revive her career in the revival of Arthur Miller’s All My Sons also starring fellow screen stars -– but not stage strangers, Dianne Wiest, Patrick Wilson and John Lithgow.

Weeds star Hunter Parrish (he plays the hotter and older of Nancy's two sons) will be making his Broadway debut as the lead, Melchior, in Spring Awakening. He takes over for Jonathan Groff.

Hottie Josh Hartnett will be starring in the London production of the new stage adaption of Rainman. He’ll play the Tom Cruise role of course, and X-Files actress Gillian Anderson will also be seen on the West End this spring in a production of A Doll’s House.

New sex kitten on the scene Aubrey O’Day will be taking over the role of legendary brat Amber Von Tussle in Hairspray. Wonder what this means for Danity Kane and her late nights at Marquee?

As seen on this blog before, little Harry Potter aka Daniel Radcliffe will be on Broadway in his birthday suit in the revival of Equus which had its debut on the West End last fall.

Songstress India.Arie will be making her debut in Ntozake Shange’s for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enuf produced by Whoopi Goldberg where she will perform a mix of prose poems and song in a cast of seven.

Stockard Channing gets back to her musical roots on Broadway in a revival of Pal Joey as the older woman seduced by a nightlife loving playboy. She was last seen on Broadway way back in 1999 in The Lion in Winter.

For a dose of the stars this summer 30 Rock’s Jane Krakowski and Will and Grace’s Sean Hayes will be starring in the City Center Encores! production of Damn Yankees which opened this past weekend.
