Ugly Betty star America Ferrara, 27, is set to make her stage debut on November 7th in London’s West End at the Garrick Theatre as showgirl Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago. She’ll be with the cast for eight weeks before leaving to star in the revival of the 1984 play The Missfirecracker Contest on Broadway. America won an Emmy, a Golden Globe and a SAG Award for her role as Betty Suarez in the hit TV fashion satire Ugly Betty, which ran from 2006 to 2010. She’ll next appear on the big screen opposite Jake Gyllenhaal in the just-completed End of Watch.
