NEW YORK, Nov. 23 (UPI) -- Actress Sarah Paulson has signed on to star in the Broadway premiere of Donald Margulies' "Collected Stories," the Manhattan Theatre Club announced.

Paulson will appear alongside Linda Lavin in the play, which is scheduled to open April 28 at the Samuel J. Friedman Theatre in New York.
