"My Week with Marilyn" star Michelle Williams is to make her Broadway debut in iconic musical 'Cabaret'.

The three-time Oscar nominee will step into Liza Minnelli's tap shoes to play Sally Bowles in a new stage revival of 'Cabaret' at the Roundabout Theater Company in New York City, reported New York Post.

Williams will star alongside Alan Cumming as he reprises his role as the flamboyant Emcee, following on from his Tony award-winning run in the 1998 version of 'Cabaret'.

Filmmaker Sam Mendes is expected to direct, while Rob Marshall will serve as co-director and choreographer - duties they previously shared for the 1998 revival.
 

Performances are scheduled to begin in early 2014.
