LONDON, ENGLAND, December 24, 2010 (Press-News.org) Hollywood star Keira Knightley will be treading the boards in London in 2011 with a lead role in The Children's Hour.
Fans may have become more accustomed to seeing the actress on the silver screen as a result of high-profile appearances in blockbusters such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Domino, as well as major British flicks like Love Actually and Atonement.
However, she will temporarily put her cinematic successes aside to star in The Children's Hour at the Comedy Theatre between January 22nd and April 2nd 2011.
The production was first performed on Broadway in 1934, with guests at London hotels in for a real treat if they decide to book tickets for the show.
It tells the story of two women running a girls' boarding school in the 1930s, whose careers are shattered after a student starts a rumour that the pair are having a lesbian affair.
Acting opposite Knightley as the other lady in charge of the educational establishment will be Elisabeth Moss, who has never appeared on a West End stage before, but who may be familiar to anyone who has watched television series Mad Men, in which she plays Peggy Olsen.
Tickets to see the production cost between GBP25 and GBP75, with showtimes varying depending on the day.
For more information on this event, visit the Comedy Theatre website or contact the venue on 020 7369 1731.

The Dangers of Drowsy Driving and New Jersey Law
2010-12-24
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that one in every six fatal car accidents results from a fatigued driver. This statistic shows why New Jersey's law that criminalizes drowsy driving is necessary to combat the problem of over-tired drivers.
In a study by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, 41 percent of the drivers surveyed admitted to having fallen asleep at the wheel. Also, more than a quarter of the drivers reported that within the last month they drove despite being so tired that they had trouble keeping their eyes open.
Drowsy ...
Recession Continues to Affect Divorcing Parties
2010-12-24
In 2008, many predicted that the recession would have a negative effect on marriages, as job losses and mounting debt would lead to more divorces. The divorce rate has steadily declined in the last two years, but the recession has changed the tenor of many divorces. Couples not accustomed to concession found themselves in awkward circumstances where the lack of resources forced them to make economical, "couple-focused" decisions even though they are no longer together.

With the housing market depressed, couples are no longer fighting over who ...
Shortcuts and Forgeries Mar the Foreclosure Process and Should There be a National Blanket Moratorium on Foreclosures?
2010-12-24
By John J. Scura II
It was reported in the Washington Post on September 23, 2010, that the already overburdened foreclosure system is now buried in problems due to increased volume, leading to forged signatures, lenders who take shortcuts reviewing borrowers' files, and even judges signing off on foreclosure papers prematurely, deserting their role as final gate keeper. As an attorney, given the fact that we are talking about whether or not people's homes will be saved, I am appalled that such things are happening.
Over the last ten years, we have run the gamut from ...
