Mr. Broadway December 2019: Little Shop's Jonathan Groff

The current off-Broadway revival of Little Shop of Horrors has rekindled my appreciation for Mr. December 2019. I've been a fan since I first saw him in an early preview of another off-Broadway musical - a little show called Spring Awakening. Then again a few more times on Broadway, including from onstage seating. In between, we caught him in both The Submission and Hamilton. Fortunately, our "Groffsauce" addiction has been sated by his pretty extensive film and television career, including Glee, Looking, Mindhunter, and of course, Frozen. (Can't wait to see Frozen II!). Thankfully, Jonathan Groff loves the stage, because that means it won't be long before he's back!
