Katie Holmes goes makeup-free in NYC ahead of performance of Broadway’s Our Town

Katie Holmes was spotted arriving at the Barrymore Theatre in New York City ahead of Tuesday night’s performance of Broadway’s Our Town.

The actress, 45, stars in the long-awaited revival of Thornton Wilder’s Pulitzer Prize-winning play along with The Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons and Zoey Deutch.

Carrying a Starbucks to-go cup and a bottle of water, Holmes — who will soon reunite with her daughter at Thanksgiving — looked ready to hit the stage.

She had on a baggy gray denim jacket over a burgundy wool sweater and black T-shirt.

The mother-of-one completed her outfit with a burgundy silk maxi skirt and yellow satin ballet flats.

Holmes appeared to be makeup-free as she smiled at pᴀssersby before heading into the historic theater.

The revival of the play, which was first performed in 1938, features more diverse casting and includes Jim Parsons, Zoey Deutch, Ephraim Sykes, Julie Halston and Michelle Wilson. 

‘We have this wonderful, beautiful group of actors and we’ve all been working hard to bring this to the stage and it’s very exciting,’ Holmes said in a promotional video shared on social media.

Holmes stars as Mrs. Webb, mother to Deutsch’s protagonist Emily. Richard Thomas of The Waltons fame stars as Mr. Webb.

In an interview with Playbill, Holmes spoke about working on the show and the new approach to the universal story.

‘He didn’t want this to be a play about nostalgia,’ the Dawson’s Creek alum said referring to director Kenny Leon.

‘He wanted this to be a play about village life set against the stars, against humanity.’

Holmes became an empty nester when her daughter Suri, 18, went off to college at Carnegie Mellon in Pittsburgh, PA.

She shares the teen with ex-husband Tom Cruise, 62.

While talking to Town & Country in August, Katie discussed her daughter moving away to attend the university.

‘I’m proud of my daughter. Of course, I will miss the close proximity, but I’m really proud of her and I’m happy,’ the actress gushed to the outlet.

‘I remember being this age, this time of beginnings.’

‘It’s exciting to learn about yourself, and I loved that time, so it makes me happy to think about it like that.’

Holmes’ run with Our Town goes through January 19.
