Alicia Silverstone concentrated on theater and independent productions throughout the 2010s. She did act more recently than she had in the previous ten years, though. She played the same part again in Daniel Sullivan’s Broadway production of Time Stands Still in 2010.
Silverstone’s performance received favorable reviews from critics and was dubbed “a breath of fresh air” by Sullivan. Silverstone, according to the New York Times, “brings warmth, actorly intelligence, and delicate humor.” She filmed a brief scene for the independent comedy sequel Elektra Luxx (2010), however, her scene was deleted from the finished product.
In the 2011 Sundance Film Festival premiere of the teen romance drama The Art of Getting By, Silverstone portrayed the teacher of a senior at a private school in Manhattan. In the ensemble comedy Butter (2011), she further portrayed the adoptive mother of a 12-year-old African American girl who competes in a regional competition for butter sculpture in a small Iowa town.
The movie had a limited distribution and was exhibited at several film festivals. In the independent film Vamps (2012), Silverstone reconnected with Clueless director Amy Heckerling, playing one of two vampires who fall in love and must make a decision that could endanger their immortality. Heckerling noticed her in Time Stands Still and gave her the part.
