From Daniel Radcliffe to Darren Criss, let’s welcome Nick Jonas as J. Pierrepont Finch in the crowd-pleasing revival of How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. Daniel actually did a pretty good job in the role when I saw the show on Broadway several months back. He was charming and respectful of stagecraft, not banking on his celebrity to get by but actually giving professionals a run for their money. Now, how about the Brotherhood of Men number? Who knew that Harry Potter could dance that well?
Now let’s see how this Jonas brother will do. I wasn’t so fond of his performance as Marius in the Les Miserables 25th Anniversary concert, maybe because he’s a pop-rock singer and the role called for a more classical Michael Ball-sounding voice. But maybe this role would suit him more. Let’s see.
Nick Jonas takes over for GLEE star Darren Criss on January 24.
What is this madness?? And why does he get a beehive background, not the usual skyline silhouette? :))
