Pamela Anderson was seemingly at the top of her game with a late-career triumph that brought her more acclaim than she had received in years.

Following the successful release of the critically acclaimed film The Last Showgirl in 2024, the 57-year-old actress found herself receiving more award nominations for her leading role than ever before in her entire career.

But now the film and television star is changing course with her career.

On Monday, People reported that Anderson will be taking her acting talents to the stage when she appears in a new production of a classic play.

News has surfaced that she is set to join the cast of a revival of Tennessee Williams’ classic play Camino Real, scheduled to take place at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Williamstown, Massachusetts.

In this production of the play, first premiered in its finalized version back in 1953, the actress will be sharing the stage with Nicholas Alexander Chavez, renowned for his standout performance in the popular true-crime series Monsters: The Lyle and Erick Menendez Story.

Although the play takes place in just one location, the show will feature an ensemble cast of 15 actors, and the theatre and opera director Dustin Wills will be helming the production.

Chavez will be handling Camino Real’s lead role as an American sailor named Kilroy. 

The play, which departs from the realism of some of William’s better-known plays in favor of a surrealistic, dream-like style, features Kilroy exploring a plaza at the end of a road, the eponymous Camino Real. 

In addition to the characters population the nearly empty plaza, famous literary figures — including Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, the poet Lord Byron, Casanova and Esmeralda of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame fame — are featured in dream sequences. 

Anderson will be appearing as one of those literary figures: Marguerite ‘Camille’ Gautier, from Alexandre Dumas fils’ novel The Lady of the Camellias.

Anderson will be appearing in Camino Real in for three consecutive weekends, with evening performances on Saturdays and matinees on Saturdays and Sunday from July 19 through August 3.

The Baywatch star has been away from the theatre for about three years after last playing Roxie Hart in Chicago on Broadway.

The musical — which was adapted into the Oscar-winning film starring Renée Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Richard Gere — marked her debut on Broadway.

‘I think I’ve been rehearsing my whole life for this,’ she said of the musical in an interview with Vogue from March 2022. 

She admitted at the time that her casting was ‘unexpected’ for many theatergoers.

Pamela has lately been experiencing a career renaissance following her turn on Broadway and her lead role in Gia Coppola’s acclaimed film The Last Showgirl.

The movie earned her Golden Globe and Screen Actors Guild Award nominations and earned her the best reviews of her career.

Next up, she’ll be turning toward over-the-top comedy to play a femme fatale mile-a-minute jokes in the reboot of The Naked Gun, which stars Liam Neeson and Paul Walter Hauser. 

The Schindler’s List star told People in October that he was ‘madly in love’ with Anderson after their collaboration. 

‘She’s just terrific to work with. I can’t compliment her enough, I’ll be honest with you. No huge ego,’ he shared. ‘She just comes in to do the work. She’s funny and so easy to work with. She’s going to be terrific in the film.’

Pamela went on to call Neeson the ‘perfect gentleman’ and praised him for how he ‘brings out the best in you.’
