The run marks the world premiere of Just in Time, which features a book by Warren Leight (Side Man) and Isaac Oliver (Intimacy Idiot) and choreography by Shannon Lewis. The play, which features a live, on-stage big band and a cast of 16, is based on an original concept by Ted Chapin.

Gosh, this sounds exactly like something Groff would've stated, word for word. Nope, not a PR flack!!!
"Bobby Darin was a supernova. He blazed his way through every corner of the entertainment industry, but his enormous talent, charisma, and pure genius were most on display when he was letting it rip in front of a crowd. This primal passionate love affair he had with the audience was the inspiration for our show's conceit," Groff said. "Alex Timber's distinctive ability to make going to the theater an unforgettable event and Bobby's signature musicality and explosive fleeting life make Broadway the perfect place to experience the story and essence of this once in a lifetime talent."
