Ella Beatty will be making her Broadway debut as River in the critically acclaimed hit play, Appropriate, written by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and directed by Lila Neugebauer.

Beatty is replacing Elle Fanning, who is not transferring with the production. Ella Beatty is a Juilliard-trained actress who can currently be seen starring in the role of "Kerry O'Shea" in the Gus Van Sant-directed, Ryan Murphy-produced FX series, “Feud: Capote vs. The Swans.” Ella will next be seen in the A24 film, If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, alongside Rose Byrne and A$AP Rocky. 

It’s summer, the cicadas are singing, and the Lafayette family has returned to their late patriarch’s Arkansas home to deal with the remains of his estate. Toni , the eldest daughter, hopes they’ll spend the weekend remembering and reconnecting over their beloved father. Bo , her brother, wants to recoup some of the funds he spent caring for Dad at the end of his life. But things take a turn when their estranged brother, Franz appears late one night, and mysterious objects are discovered among the clutter. Suddenly, long-hidden secrets and buried resentments can’t be contained, and the family is forced to face the ghosts of their past.
