MURDER, SHE SANG AND DANCED:After a poorly received return to Broadway in last season's Deuce, Angela Lansbury will appear on stage again later this season in a revival of Noel Coward's Blithe Spirit, opposite Christine Ebersole and Rupert Everett. No word on whether murder and mystery will follow her wherever she goes.

e.t.a.by.adam: In other Broadway news, Oliver Platt has signed up to star in the upcoming Broadway revival of Guys and Dolls, portraying good old reliable Nathan, Nathan Nathan Nathan Detroit, a role previously inhabited on stage and screen by Walter Matthau, Alan King, Frank Sinatra, Robert Guillaume, Bob Hoskins and, of course, Nathan Lane. No casting yet for Sky Masterson, Miss Adelaide or Sarah Brown -- let alone Nicely-Nicely Johnson -- so your suggestions, hopes and fears are welcome.
