She rose to prominence as a Girl, but that was 42 years ago. Now she gets to play a Lady. She's Lynn Redgrave, for whom the Seekers sang "Hey, there! Georgy Girl!" in the 1966 film that landed her an Oscar nod and a Golden Globe Award (both of which she nabbed again three decades later for "Gods and Monsters").
Now Redgrave will play Lady Bracknell, the uppity society matron in Oscar Wilde's comedy, "The Importance of Being Earnest," under the direction of David Schweizer. It all happens at the Paper Mill Playhouse, 3 Brookside Drive in Millburn, from Jan. 14-Feb. 15. Tickets are $25-$92. Call (973) 376-4343 or visit papermill.org.
