Another Broadway talent has joined the cast of the CW's musical comedy CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND.

Lea Salonga broke the news on Facebook that she would be appearing in the season finale of the CW's CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND. And of course, how could a Tony Award-winner join a musical show without singing? Don't worry- her musical talents will be utilized.

Salonga wrote, "I guess the news is out!!! I'll be appearing on the season finale of the CW's Crazy Ex-Girlfriend! And singing, too! How fun is that?!"

No word yet on which role Salonga will be playing, but keep checking BroadwayWorld as we learn more!

In the musical-themed comedy, Rachel Bloom stars as Rebecca Bunch, a successful driven, and possibly crazy young woman who impulsively gives up everything in a desperate attempt to find love and happiness...in suburban West Covina, CA.

Tony nominee Santino Fontana plays Greg, a bartender and Rebecca's (Bloom) first friend. The cast also includes actor and comedian McDonald (MADtv) as Darryl, Rebecca's new boss; OBIE and Drama Desk Award winner Champlin (Broadway productions of Billy Elliot, Sweeney Todd) as Paula, her co-worker at the law firm who is suspicious of Rebecca; and Broadway star Rodriguez III (Here Lies Love) who plays Josh, Rebecca's childhood boyfriend who she serendipitously runs into years later, and who acts as the catalyst for her dramatic life change.
