Look out, Isa's back! The Pitt star Isa Briones will return to Broadway this spring in Just in Time, joining the musical at the Circle in the Square Theatre on April 1.
Briones is best known for starring as Dr. Trinity Santos in The Pitt, but she's also worked extensively in theatre, becoming the youngest performer in the first touring company of Hamilton at age 19 and later making her Broadway debut as Eurydice in Hadestown.
In Just in Time, she will assume the role of Connie Francis from Sarah Hyland, who departs March 29.
As previously announced, Tony-nominated original Just in Time star Jonathan Groff will play his final performance as Bobby Darin March 29. Glee Emmy winner Matthew Morrison stars from April 1-19, and Tony and Grammy nominee Jeremy Jordan stars beginning April 21.
Additionally, Debbie Gravitte replaces original cast member Michele Pawk as Polly from April 1, and Carrie St. Louis replaces Sadie Dickerson as Sandra Dee from April 21.
Just in Time sets the story of Darin's life and career to his biggest hit songs — including "Splish Splash," "Dream Lover," and "Mack the Knife" — with the Circle in the Square refashioned to resemble a nightclub for a semi-immersive experience. The musical opened to acclaim on Broadway in spring 2025, earning six Tony Award nominations.
