It has been announced that Jordan Donica will join the cast of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Sunset Blvd. starring Nicole Scherzinger in the role of Max Von Mayerling. Donica will begin his run on Tuesday, June 10 at the St. James Theatre. Olivier Award winner David Thaxton will play his final Broadway performance in Sunset Blvd. on Sunday, June 8.
Donica returns to Broadway after his acclaimed, Tony Award nominated turn in Camelot. Jesse Green of the New York Times compared his ‘Lancelot’ to “a lion ripping huge bites of dramatic flesh with his teeth.” And Jackson McHenry of New York Magazine said he is gifted with a “especially gorgeous and powerful baritone.” In addition to Camelot, Donica has also starred on Broadway in My Fair Lady, The Phantom of the Opera, and regional and touring productions of Hamilton, Les Misérables, and Jesus Christ Superstar. He will also appear in the upcoming third season of HBO Max’s The Gilded Age.
Sunset Blvd. stars Tony Award nominee, Drama Desk Award nominee, and Drama League Award winner Nicole Scherzinger, Tony Award nominee and Drama Desk Award nominee Tom Francis, and Olivier Award nominee Grace Hodgett Young. The revival is playing an extended limited engagement on Broadway through Sunday, July 13 only.
