About this show

Just in Time on Broadway

Just in Time tells the story of Bobby Darin, the singer behind "Beyond the Sea," "Splish Splash" and "Mack the Knife," as a fantasy nightclub act at Circle in the Square Theatre in New York. Darin's rise from teen idol to one of the biggest entertainers of his era plays out with a live band on stage, and the theater is transformed into a 1960s supper club, so the action happens all around the audience.

The musical was developed and directed by Tony Award winner Alex Timbers (Moulin Rouge!), with a book by Tony winner Warren Leight and Isaac Oliver, based on an original concept by Ted Chapin. Along the way you meet the women who shaped Darin's life, including the pop star Connie Francis and his wife, Sandra Dee. Bobby Darin is a rotating star role, and our Bobby Darin cast tracker lists who plays him and when.

What to expect

Just in Time runs approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes, including an intermission, and is recommended for ages 10 and up. The staging surrounds the performers on several sides, so there are great views from all over the house; our Just in Time Broadway guide explains where to sit.

Circle in the Square Theatre

Circle in the Square Theatre is at 235 West 50th Street, between Broadway and Eighth Avenue, a short walk from the 50th Street subway stations on the 1 and C/E lines.

What the critics say

1/13
The New York Times
“Dismayed as I was to endure so much else, I have to admit he’s giving one of Broadway’s best performances.”
Jesse GreenRead review
The New York Times
“Just in Time deals with the difference between image and reality...It’s finally about the joy of performance, and the escapism it provides not just for an audience but for a performer as well”
Adam FeldmanRead review
Variety
““Contrary to its title, ‘Just in Time’ is anything but timely, since the window of Darin’s relevancy has long gone.””
Christian LewisRead review
The Washington Post
“It’s another magnificent performance — kind-eyed, honey-voiced and all but irresistible.”
Naveen KumarRead review
New York Post
““ 'Just in Time' is a wallop of joy, though. And while it doesn’t shy away from Darin’s heart struggles, anatomically and romantically, the musical is never gloomy.”
Johnny OleksinskiRead review
TheaterScene.net
“Groff is simply sensational, charming as himself and astonishing in his revelatory Darin.”
Joel BenjaminRead review
Lighting & Sound America
“...one of the most sensational musical theatre performances I've ever seen.”

“A moment worth holding on to.”
Mason PilevskyRead review
New York Theatre Guide
“With an exuberant band, Just in Time rides easy on Groff’s waves of showman charisma while paying tribute to the era-specific music and other singers, especially the women in Darin’s life who inspired his performance”
Caroline CaoRead review
Theatermania
““Naturally, though, it’s Groff’s energy and charisma that anchor Just in Time.””
Kenji FujishimaRead review
New York Theater
“Groff in effect stars in a nightclub act, combining his talents and charm with his subject”
Jonathan MandellRead review
Critic review
“‘Just in Time’ feels rejuvenated by Jeremy Jordan, who seems tailor-made to play Bobby Darin, a legend with a golden voice, a hard-charging style, and charm to spare. ★★★★☆”
Thom GeierRead review
Critic review
“While it’s hard to resist Jonathan Groff’s considerable charms, he struggles to sell us on Bobby Darin’s cockiness or callousness in this by-the-numbers biomusical”
