Bunheads: A Triple Threat Comes to ABC Family

Sutton Foster is the next Broaway star to make the jump to television. She stars in the new ABC Family series Bunheads, which premieres June 11.

Bunheads is the tale of a Las Vegas showgirl, who impulsively marries a man, moves to his sleepy coastal town, and takes an uneasy role at her new mother-in-law's dance school.



Sutton has starred on Broadway in Thoroughly Modern Millie, Young Frankenstein, Shrek (which also starred the wonderful Brian d'Arcy James in the title role), and most recently the acclaimed revival of Anything Goes.

I have only seen Sutton in short scenes from her Broadway performances, but the one word I can say about her (other than talented) is likable. I'm excited to see another series about the performing arts, and I am looking forward to the pilot of Bunheads.
