Look out, Jonathan’s back! Tony Award winner Jonathan Groff returns to Broadway as Bobby Darin, the legendary singer whose short but remarkable life took him from teen idol to global sensation.
Developed and directed by Tony Award winner Alex Timbers (Moulin Rouge), Just In Time is an exhilarating new musical that immerses audiences in an intimate, swinging nightclub complete with a live band, a stellar ensemble cast, and iconic Bobby Darin hits
In Just In Time, discover the man behind the music – a once-in-a-lifetime talent who knew his time was limited and was determined to make a splash before it was too late.
Bobby Darin (1936–1973) was a multifaceted entertainer whose career spanned singing, songwriting, acting, and producing, leaving an indelible mark on American pop culture. Rising to fame in the late 1950s, Darin showcased his versatility with hits like the jazzy Mack the Knife, which won him a Grammy Award, and the tender ballad Beyond the Sea. Known for his dynamic stage presence and charisma, he seamlessly transitioned between genres, from rock and roll to folk and swing.
Darin also found success in film, earning an Academy Award nomination for Captain Newman, M.D. His legacy is one of relentless artistry and adaptability, as he broke boundaries in entertainment while battling lifelong health challenges. Despite his untimely death at 37, Darin’s influence remains strong, with his music and story continuing to inspire new generations.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Just in Time
Just in Time review – Bobby Darin musical is light on detail but big on charm
6 / 10
The show puts an interesting twist on the cliche of a past-his-prime singer becoming a nightclub nostalgia act – typically a sad, pitiable fate for a pop star instead presented as a victory, a return to form and homecoming worthy of one of the show’s most vivacious numbers. Both Darin and Groff understood the implicit contract of a performer: lend one’s time in exchange for entertainment. The retro style of show will appeal to some Broadway-heads more than others, but on that promise, at least, Groff more than delivers.
Theater ‘Just in Time’: Jonathan Groff is a dream lover in the by-the-numbers biomusical (Broadway review)
6 / 10
While it’s hard to resist Groff’s considerable charms, he struggles to sell us on Darin’s cockiness or the callous way he dumps Sandra Dee (which he does here without obvious venom or even a mistress-in-waiting). You don’t cast Groff for his dark side; he’s an actor who thrives in the spotlight, not the shade. And you can’t help admiring the way he glistens delivering another high kick or flip into his head voice for a deliciously sustained high note. Beyond the C indeed
