Chandra Wilson Takes the Chicago Stage
Enjoying a nice summer break from her day job, Grey’s Anatomy star Chandra Wilson steps in to the celebrated role of Matron “Mama” Morton in the hit musical Chicago.
The 39-year-old actress will be in the Broadway show for a four-week limited tenure starting Monday, June 8. Here's Chandra in a different role than we normally see:
Chandra, who plays Dr. Miranda Bailey on Grey’s Anatomy, began performing in musicals at the age of five. She has since appeared in other Broadway productions including Avenue Q, The Good Times Are Killing Me, and On the Town. You gotta love Chandra!
