Matthew Morrison Reprises Bobby Darin Role in Just In Time for Three-Week Encore

Glee star Matthew Morrison returns to Broadway's Just In Time at the Circle in the Square Theatre beginning October 20 for a limited three-week engagement playing music legend Bobby Darin. Jeremy Jordan completes his run in the role with his final performance on October 18, after which Morrison takes over. The production continues through November and features a live on-stage band performing Darin's greatest hits.

Matthew Morrison's return to Broadway's Just In Time marks the second casting cycle for the Bobby Darin musical at Circle in the Square Theatre. The production, helmed by Tony-winning director Alex Timbers, chronicles the rise and fall of the legendary entertainer through his most celebrated recordings. The show features live musical accompaniment performed nightly, distinguishing it as an immersive theatrical experience centered on Darin's catalog.

The musical benefits from a rotating cast strategy that allows multiple stars to inhabit the title role. Morrison's previous tenure earlier in 2026 demonstrated audience appeal for the production, prompting the theater to extend the show's run through November with his return engagement. The casting of Real Housewives personality Ariana Madix as Connie Francis and the announced addition of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Whitney Leavitt as Sandra Dee suggest the production may be leveraging celebrity recognition to expand its audience base.
