Just in Time

Book by Warren Leight and Isaac Oliver · Developed & directed by Alex Timbers

A musical about the life of singer Bobby Darin, staged as a nightclub show inside Circle in the Square. Hits including “Splish Splash,” “Mack the Knife” and “Beyond the Sea” carry the story of his fast rise from teen idol to headliner. It earned six Tony Award nominations and won two Drama Desk Awards in 2025.

Why we said yes

Alex Timbers rebuilt Circle in the Square as a nightclub, with cabaret tables around the band and Jonathan Groff, the year after his Tony Award for Merrily We Roll Along, playing Bobby Darin from the middle of the room. Darin’s songs are standards three generations can sing, and the staging turns the show into a night out rather than a night at a musical, in one of Broadway’s most intimate houses. A star, a songbook people already know and a production built to sell as an event: that is the kind of show we like to back, and we joined as a producer.

Where it stands

Running at Circle in the Square since it opened on April 26, 2025. It earned six 2025 Tony Award nominations and won two Drama Desk Awards, and its cast recording was nominated for a Grammy Award. In May 2026 the producers announced that the production had recouped its investment, the first musical of the 2024–25 season to do so, and a North American tour launches in June 2027.
