Cynthia Nixon may be best known for her role as the ever-striving Miranda Hobbes on television's Sex and the City, but she never stays away from theater for too long.

In 2006, Nixon won a Tony for her performance in David Lindsay-Abaire's Pulitzer Prize-winning Rabbit Hole and later that year starred in an off-Broadway revival of The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.

Off-Broadway will see her again next season, starring in the New York premiere of Lisa Loomer's Distracted. The play, which had its world premiere last year at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles, will begin performances next February at the Roundabout Theatre Company's Laura Pels Theatre. Mark Brokaw will direct. Production dates and other cast members will be announced.
