We've known for some time that he can wear the hell out of a tux, so this seems like a natural fit. Broadway alum Jason Danieley will step into the Ambassador Theatre courtroom as Chicago’s next Billy Flynn. He begins performances on October 13, stepping in for Ryan Silverman, who will depart the production on October 12.
Danieley last appeared on Broadway in The Visit. His additional credits include Next to Normal (opposite his wife Marin Mazzie), Curtains, The Full Monty and Candide. He has also recently appeared in Can-Can at Paper Mill Playhouse and Carousel with the New York Philharmonic.
The cast currently features Dancing with the Stars victor Rumer Willis as Roxie Hart (through November 1), Amra-Faye Wright as Velma Kelly, Raymond Bokhour as Amos Hart, NaTasha Yvette Williams as Matron "Mama" Morton and R. Lowe as Mary Sunshine.
