BroadwayBobby Darin

Groff won the Tony for this performance, and the staging is the sell: Circle in the Square is dressed as a supper club, the band is onstage, and Darin's songbook is delivered inches from the front tables like a real Copacabana set. It's the closest Broadway gets to a great Vegas residency with an actual story underneath — Darin died at 37, and the show earns its poignancy. Music lovers who resist 'jukebox bio-musicals' tend to make an exception here.

What to expect

An in-the-round nightclub staging with some patrons seated at cabaret tables on the floor. Around 2.5 hours with intermission, heavy on live big-band swing. Saturday matinee and evening performances.

Good to know

Circle in the Square is on 50th west of Broadway, under the Paramount Plaza
On-stage cabaret table seats are a splurge but a genuinely different experience
Great pick for parents and grandparents who know the songbook — and converts younger skeptics
Saturday 2pm & 8pm; Sunday matinee too
Rush and lottery available most performances

Common questions

Is Jonathan Groff still in it?

Groff originated the role and won the Tony; check the current casting calendar for scheduled absences before buying premium seats.

Do I need to know Bobby Darin?

No — the show is built as an introduction, and the songs ('Mack the Knife,' 'Beyond the Sea') are more familiar than his name.
