Matthew Morrison is returning to Broadway, but just for a limited time!
The Tony-nominated actor, best known for his role as Mr. Schuester on Glee, will step into the role of Bobby Darin for a three-week run in the musical Just in Time.
Matthew will take over for Jonathan Groff beginning on April 1 and he will perform through April 19. Jeremy Jordan is scheduled to begin performances on April 21.
“Our show is made to fit like a glove around all kinds of virtuoso performers. I’m thrilled to get back in there and tailor the material so it’s personal to Matthew Morrison, his journey, his many talents, and to welcome him back home to Broadway where he belongs,” said co-book writer Isaac Oliver.
Matthew has previously appeared in the Broadway shows Hairspray, The Light in the Piazza, South Pacific, and Finding Neverland.
Just In Time is “an exhilarating new musical that will transport audiences into an intimate, swinging nightclub complete with a live band, a stellar ensemble cast, and iconic Bobby Darin hits including ‘Beyond the Sea,’ ‘Mack the Knife,’ ‘Splish Splash,’ and ‘Dream Lover.’ Discover the man behind the music who pushed back against the record labels to chart a new course for himself on the charts – a once-in-a-lifetime talent who knew his time was limited and was determined to make a splash before it was too late.”
