From our rehearsal studios at @mtc_nyc Soon new skylines, new beautiful theatre @savoytheatreldn new audiences and new memories. 'Pack up the luggage la la la…' Goodbye NY, hello London. X, SJ." 

Sarah's fans were quick to comment on the post, with many excited about the play's new home. One wrote: "London is so lucky!! The savoy is absolutely stunning. Hope you get to see Sunset Boulevard when you get there before it moves out of your new home. I am still thinking about it! A must see!!!" while another commented: "Have our tickets ready and waiting...so looking forward to seeing the play xxxx." 

Plaza Suite's synopsis reads: "A hilarious and razor-sharp look at love and marriage that took Broadway audiences by storm, don’t miss your once-in-a-lifetime chance to see these two world-class actors play three different couples who stay in one iconic hotel room."

This year, the 58-year-old sat down to talk about the dynamics at her home with Bruce Bozzi for iHeart podcast Table for Two. While chatting about family meals. she revealed that they were all home bodies, preferring to cook every night and foregoing the desire to go out or order in. "We cook every night," the Hocus Pocus star said.

"It's a source of huge amount of pride for everybody. But it's also mystifying because we just don't order in as a family. "And on the rare occasion we have… we always hear [of] other families, they do it and then one kid orders from this place and one kid [from another], it's so confusing…But we really do cook 5 to 6 nights a week for sure. We try to always have a Sunday dinner – we invite people."

Elsewhere in their conversation, the actress and mom-of-three described raising her children to work hard for the things they want while still having access to what they need. "I think it's a great way of living for children that their needs are met – to be fed, safe and loved, the important things in life: books and food and interesting experiences, and they're warm in the winter and cool in summer," Sarah said. 

"But they should pine for things, they should want things. And we should also be interested in, how do they contribute to the things?"
