Clarke's Broadway Debut in Breakfast at Tiffany's

In March 2013, Emilia Clarke made her highly anticipated Broadway debut, starring as Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's. Based on the novella by Truman Capote, this adaptation of the classic story marked Clarke's first major theatrical role. Taking on the role of Holly, a character famously portrayed by Audrey Hepburn in the 1961 film, was a bold move for Clarke, who was best known at the time for her television work in Game of Thrones. The role allowed Clarke to display her versatility as an actress, transitioning from the small screen to live theatre in one of the most iconic roles in American literature and cinema. While the play itself received mixed reviews, Clarke's performance was praised for her charm and charisma. Breakfast at Tiffany's on Broadway was a significant milestone in her career, proving her ability to handle diverse roles and perform under the intense pressures of live theatre. The experience helped Clarke grow as an actress, broadening her range beyond television and film.
