Kim Matula, who played Hope Logan on The Bold and the Beautiful, is appearing on stage taking on a new role in a very familiar TV series. She’s being joined in a live production of the TV series Designing Women along with one of Linsey Godfrey’s (ex-Caroline) soap opera pals.
Kim Matula Hits The Stage With A DAYS Star’s Spouse
“Hi!! Two of my friends are in an awesome play together!!” posted Linsey Godfrey (ex-Caroline, B&B; ex-Sarah Days of our Lives). Along with Matula, who plays the role of Haley McPhee, a new character, who works as a receptionist at Sugarbaker’s, the cast of the Designing Women stage show includes Carmen Cusak, wife of Paul Telfer (Xander, DAYS). Cusak plays the role of Julia Sugarbaker, the part originated by the late Dixie Carter (ex-Brandy, Edge of Night).
“Yes [it’s] like the show but with a new take on it!” Godfrey adds. The stage production is set in modern-day and deals with the women deciding whether or not to sell the design firm business. “@paultelfer and I keep joking our wives are working together!… There are also streaming tickets available as well! Head over to @theatresquared for more information!! I’m super proud of both of them! This is Kim’s first one! What a bunch of talented babes, am I right?! #designingwomen.”
Matula, who played Hope Logan from 2010 to 2016, posted on her page how she felt the debut went. “I just did my first professional stage production. My first play since high school,” the actress posted. “And I had THE BEST time. Thank you for coming out tonight Fayetteville!!”
