Dancing with the Stars Season 32 finalist Ariana Madix is returning to Broadway next month, appearing in the musical Just in Time. Fellow DWTS alum Whitney Leavitt is starring in the same production later this year.
Ariana Madix Joins Broadway’s Just in Time
Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix, who was a finalist on DWTS Season 32, is officially joining the cast of the Broadway musical Just in Time for a 10-week run beginning September 12. Madix will play Connie Francis, taking over for actress Olivia Holt.
Madix made her Broadway debut in 2024 as Roxie Hart in Chicago. DWTS Season 34 contestant Whitney Leavitt also made her Broadway debut as Roxie Hart earlier this year. Similarly, Leavitt is joining the cast of Just in Time as Sandra Dee for a six-week run later this year.
Although the two reality stars are playing different characters in the show, their runs will not overlap. Madix’s time in the musical is set to end on November 22, while Leavitt is scheduled to start performing on December 1.
The musical Just in Time, which is currently performed at the Circle in the Square Theatre, is about the life and career of singer Bobby Darin, featuring some of his biggest hits such as “Beyond the Sea” and “Mack the Knife.”
