Keira still shadowing Audrey

I just happened to hear about this by accident, but apparently Keira Knightley has been performing in a West End production of The Children's Hour - taking on Audrey Hepburn's old role of Karen Wright. The show opened around the end of January and I'm not sure how much longer it will be around, but Keira has been getting mixed reviews. Mainly upbeat, though the Daily Mail says there's still room for improvement.

You may remember that Keira was in serious talks to star in a film remake of My Fair Lady before it fell through, and that the remake is still in development. This is twice now that Keira has wanted to recreate an Audrey Hepburn film role, and her first time actually doing it. Any thoughts on her choices in this regard?

Isn't Carey Mulligan supposed to be doing it now? I think she'd be way better than Miss Knightley in any Audrey Hepburn-esque role.
