Calista Flockhart, Ally McBeal herself, might be headed to Off Broadway this summer. The TV star, who hails from the New York stage and who left a production of Chekov's "Three Sisters" at the Roundabout Theater in order to assume the role of McBeal, is said to be hungry to return to her theatrical roots, at least during the summer hiatus of her hit series, reports Variety. An offer is understood to be on the table to have Flockhart star in a revival of John van Druten's "I Am a Camera," the original adaptation of Christopher Isherwood's "Berlin Stories" which later became the basis for the musical "Cabaret." Flockhart would begin rehearsals in early May for three weeks and then do a five-week run.
