ONE TREE HILL Girls Gone Wild? We Preview Brooke’s Bachelorette Party with Star Sharon Lawrence
Can’t wait until 8PM tonight to find out just what alcohol-fuelled-craziness goes down at Brooke’s Hangover-esque Bachelorette party? Well, neither could we! Which is why we just got off the phone with Sharon Lawrence — better known to ONE TREE HILL fans as Brooke’s monster-in-law-to-be — in an effort to find out what fans can expect from tonight’s big bash.
Was the opportunity to return to your home-state of North Carolina part of the appeal of signing on to ONE TREE HILL show?
Sharon Lawrence: Yes. That and working with Sophia [Bush]. She and I had done a pilot together last year and when I heard that she was directing the first episode that my character would appear in, it was so exciting to get to work with her. Aside from being so impressed with her, I’m a past chairman of a Woman in Film Foundation, so I love supporting female directors. It was an easy yes.
As an actor, is it a challenge guest-starring on a show where the cast has been working together for so many years.
You know for me it really depends on the environment and vibe of the show. A happy set is a welcoming set no matter what and ONE TREE HILL is a really happy set. Really, I was quite impressed with that, and to hang out with all the cast of this episode — which is just a female version of The Hangover — I got to be with the girls, and I really felt like one of the girls, it was delight. I love supporting woman and they all enjoy each other so much, it was great.
