On April 24, Jeremy Jordan is killing it as Bobby Daron in the Broadway hit Just in Time. He stepped into the lead role on April 21, right after Jonathan Groff left and Matthew Morrison did a quick run. Now Jordan's making the part totally his own, with some fresh twists. He switched up the big, splish splash number, ditching the skimpy swimsuit for an old school tank top and trunk's combo. Jordan pitched it as pure comedy instead of sexy stagebibes, leaning into the song's campy roots. It's a fun change that fits his style perfectly. Jordan felt super-supported joining the cast, saying he was taken care of and seen from day one. Groff even gave him a pep talk to lean on the team. Coming off his J. Gasby gig, Jordan admits he's no pro dancer, but he's been grinding rehearsals for a month and a half to nail DARREN's moves. The show's immersive, turning the circle in the square theater into a swinging nightclub. Jordan narrates and stars, built in classics like Beyond the Sea, Mac the Knife, and Dream
Lover, while chatting up the crowd. New castmates include Issa Breone's as Connie Francis and Carrie St. Louis as Sandra D. Just in time opened officially on April 26, 2025 and tickets run through September 6, 2026. Jordan's owning this DARREN era, keeping the energy high night after night, entertainment and celebrity news. Today, powered by AI bringing you what's trending, I'm Cory with The Story.
