Description

After taking home the 2024 Tony Award for “Merrily We Roll Along,” actor Jonathan Groff returns to Broadway in the Bobby Darin bio-musical “Just in Time.”

Groff is known for his breakout role in Broadway’s “Spring Awakening,” his turn as a sassy King George III in “Hamilton” and his voice in the “Frozen” franchise (he’s Kristoff). So why Bobby Darin, the singer of “Mack the Knife” and “Beyond the Sea”? Turns out, Darin had quite a life — even if it was only 37 years long.

In this episode, Groff reveals the unlikely origin story of this new Broadway musical. Director Alex Timbers (Tony winner for “Moulin Rouge!”) gives a taste of what to expect from the immersive production. Plus hear from Groff’s co-stars Gracie Lawrence (of the band Lawrence) and Erika Henningsen (“Mean Girls”) as well as choreographer Shannon Lewis and music supervisor Andrew Resnick.

“Just in Time” officially opens on April 26, 2025, at the Circle in the Square Theatre.
