NEW YORK (AP) _ The first lines spoken by Julia Roberts in her Broadway debut were drowned out by applause at an eagerly awaited preview of ``Three Days of Rain.''

The play, which started previews Tuesday and opens April 19 at the Bernard B. Jacobs Theatre, is Roberts' first major project since the birth of her 16-month-old twins, Phinnaeus and Hazel.

A prop tomato fell onto the floor during the preview, making a noise that prompted laughter from the actress, the New York Post reported Wednesday.

Appearing in Richard Greenberg's 1997 Pulitzer Prize nominee, Roberts plays a woman unraveling the truth behind her father's death, and in the second act, plays the woman's mother.

Roberts co-stars with Paul Rudd and Bradley Cooper. The actress didn't take a solo curtain call, instead sharing the spotlight with the two actors, the Post reported.
