Angela Lansbury to star in 2013 NYC production of Enid Bagnold's The Chalk Garden

I’m in constant awe of Ms. Lansbury’s joie de vivre and stamina: 5 months of touring on the other side of the world and then she’s ready to headline another Broadway production. What a Lady! (If only she could squeeze in a film or TV appearance in between).

Where in the article does it mention Broadway (I may have just missed it due to viewing on phone)? Does it have any dates?

The article says :
She is all about moving forward and is already anticipating a role in New York this time next year in the Enid Bagnold play The Chalk Garden

Miss Madrigal: Cate Blanchett or Samantha Morton

Elle Fanning as Laurel

Knowing that Ms. Lansbury doesn’t like to carry the show on her own I imagine producers also have a star name in mind for Miss Madrigal. Cate Blanchett would be amazing. Anyway, this is a great role for Lansbury.

THE CHALK GARDEN is one of those chestnuts I don't really mind seeing get pulled out for a repeat appearance.

Looks like I know when my next New York trip is now!!!

Key word is "anticipating".

Kristin Scott Thomas is another one I would like to see in the role.

Has anyone heard any news on this since then?
While promoting Driving Miss Daisy tour in Australia Angela Lansbury has yet again confirmed that she planning on starting in the play next fall.
Here what she said:
"If this was my swansong [Driving Miss Daisy], I would feel like I had closed the envelope nicely - although I do have a plan for a play (The Chalk Garden) in New York next fall."
