Join Us! The Voice Winner Josh Kaufman Makes Broadway Debut as Pippin’s Newest Prince

The Voice victor Josh Kaufman enters the Broadway big top on October 31 as the titular prince in Pippin. He takes over for Kyle Dean Massey, who will find his corner of the sky on the road in the national tour. Kaufman will play a limited engagement through January 4, 2015 at the Music Box Theatre.

Kaufman, who is stepping in a few days earlier than initially announced, will make his Broadway debut in the Stephen Schwartz tuner. He was crowned the winner of the sixth season of the NBC hit in May, having been coached by Grammy winner Usher.

With a score by Schwartz and a book by Roger O. Hirson, Pippin tells the story of a young prince searching for his corner of the sky. In addition to Kaufman, the current cast includes Carly Hughes, Lucie Arnaz, John Dossett, Charlotte d’Amboise and Rachel Bay Jones.
