The former Pushing Daisies star has received rave reviews for her role as Holly Golightly in the London stage version of the classic 1961 movie.

And the Brit is now considering turning her back on TV and film work in favour of more plays - because she was shocked by her own reaction to the role.

She tells London's Evening Standard, "When my agent asked me what I wanted to do next, I said, 'I want to keep doing plays.' I never thought I'd say that in the middle of a very hard run, but I absolutely love it. It's almost shocking to me that there are so many different facets to Holly. Every night can be a completely different performance... That's the excitement of theatre."
