Cate Blanchett: 'Uncle Vanya' in Washington, D.C.

Cate Blanchett is picture perfect in Armani at the opening night reception for the Sydney Theatre Company’s production of Uncle Vanya on Saturday (August 6) in Washington, D.C.

The 42-year-old Aussie actress and her husband, Andrew Upton, currently serve as the artistic directors of the company.

The opening night celebration was hosted by Australian Ambassador Kim Beazley, who posed for photos with Cate and is pictured inside.

FYI: Uncle Vanya, a play by Anton Chekhov, was first published in 1897 but was adapted for the production by Andrew. The Sydney Theatre Company also performed the play down under in November!
