Jonathan Bennett To Make Broadway Debut In ‘Spamalot’ As Michael Urie Moves To ‘Once Upon a Mattress’
deadline.comJonathan Bennett, the Mean Girls heartthrob and star of the Hallmark Channel’s Christmas House franchise, will make his Broadway debut when he takes over the role of Spamalot‘s Sir Robin from Michael Urie on January 23.
Urie, as previously announced, is jumping over to co-star (with Sutton Foster) in the New York City Center’s Encores! production of Once Upon a Mattress.
Urie, who got raves for his very funny Spamalot turn, will play his final performance in that revival on January 21; Once Upon A Mattress will run from January 24 to February 4.
Bennett’s limited engagement in Spamalot runs January 23 through April 28. He’s yet another high-profile replacement in the show: Beetlejuice‘s Alex Brightman, as previously announced, takes over the role of Sir Lancelot after Taran Killam ends his limited engagement on January 7.
