Emma Watson Takes On New Role At Brown

Harry Potter star Emma Watson’s latest role is of a different kind of cachet. Watson will be performing in a student-directed production of Anton Chehkov’s Three Sisters at Brown University, where she is a freshman.

The play is being produced by the school’s Production Workshop, a non-profit student theater founded in 1960. Watson, with an ensemble cast of 13 other students, will perform six shows from March 11-15. Unlike her other projects, this one won’t be bringing a sizable payday for Watson: Admission to the play is free.
