Nothing has been confirmed, but there are whispers in the Broadway community that Darren Criss is in talks to play Billy Flynn in Chicago on Broadway this summer!
After Darren sold 99.8% of the seats during his 3 week stint in How To Succeed (read our review here), there’s no question that Broadway producers are looking to get him in their theaters.
Today, Broadway Buzz is saying that Darren is in talks to play Billy Flynn in the Broadway musical Chicago this summer:
Darren Criss in talks to play Billy Flynn on Broadway this Summer! Yay, @ChicagoBroadway !!!!
It’s important to categorize this report as a rumor for now, as nothing has been mentioned by any official source or agency.
Darren was so amazing in How To Succeed, so this is going to be exciting news for fans who wanted to see Darren on Broadway but couldn’t make it to his 3-week run.
What are your thoughts on Darren potentially playing Billy Flynn?
