She is also known for “Vanderpump Rules,” “St. Denis Medical,” “Will Trent,” “Anger Management,” “Dads,” “Working It Out” and “Dead End.”
“It’s a pinch-me moment to be able to come home to the Broadway stage and all I could have ever hoped for,” Madix said in a statement. “I am beyond excited to work with the legends behind ‘Just In Time’ and to entertain audiences at one of my favorite theaters in the city!”
