Walking Dead: World Beyond actress Natalie Gold on Broadway in Appropriate
By Renee Hansen
Actress Natalie Gold portrayed Rava Roy in seasons 1, 3, and 4 of the wildly popular Succession series that airs on HBO. She also played Dr. Lyla Bellshaw in The Walking Dead: World Beyond limited spinoff series, where her character met a horrific demise. Women's Wear Daily reports that Gold has secured her next role, this time in the Broadway production of Appropriate.
The play, a comedic drama written by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins, follows the dysfunctional Lafayette family who, after their father's recent passing, travel to the ancestral plantation mansion to fight over their inheritance. When they discover a relic hidden deep within the family's past, "decades of resentment burst through centuries of historical sin."
Appropriate marks Pulitzer Prize finalist and Obie Award winner Jacbos-Jenkins' first Broadway production that began performances in November 2023 and runs through March 2024 at
Second Stage Theater (2ST). The play is directed by Drama Desk Award winner Lila Neugebauer, with whom Gold has worked three times previously, and she describes the director as "beautifully precise."
The talented Sarah Paulson leads the cast and features recognizable names such as Corey Stoll and Elle Fanning.
