NYTimes.com: The theater veteran Laurie Metcalf, best known as Jackie, Roseanne Barr’s high-strung sidekick sister on the popular 1990s sitcom “Roseanne,” is back on Broadway. Metcalf, an Emmy Award-winning actress, is currently reprising her leading role as Juliana Smithton, a biophysicist battling dementia in Joe Mantello’s “The Other Place,” running through March 3 at Manhattan Theater Club‘s Samuel J. Friedman’s Theater. In the show — and in approximately 80 minutes — Metcalf takes the audience on a gut-wrenching ride as her nefarious disease leaves a path of heartbreaking destruction.
