Joanna ‘JoJo’ Levesque made her Broadway debut in Moulin Rouge! in 2023, and then returned to the show in 2024 for a limited time. JoJo recently chatted about her Broadway experience in an interview with the Elvis Duran show, and revealed that she has future Broadway productions in the works for her future.
“I loved it, I think I thrive in high-coritsol environment and there’s nothing like that Broadway schedule,” she said. “I was doing seven shows a week, and some people do eight shows a week. It’s unbelievable, it is a lot. But I love the community, I loved doing the same thing every night. I loved getting to play Satine.”
JoJo then went on to say that she has future Broadway projects underway, included an original musical.
“I loved it so much that I’m developing an original musical and I’m working on another one that’s been in development for a long time,” she teased. “I’m really excited. I’m just overjoyed. I feel like a little kid.”
