He'll Be the Big Man in Town! Michael Lomenda to Temporarily Replace Matt Bogart in Jersey Boys on Broadway

It's too good to be true for Michael Lomenda, who will step in for Matt Bogart as Nick Massi in Jersey Boys from May 3 through September 4. Bogart is on leave from the long-running tuner while he appears in off-Broadway's Himself and Nora, and will return to the Main Stem's August Wilson Theatre on September 6.

A Jersey Boys vet, having appeared as Nick Massi in Toronto, on the road and on Broadway, Lomenda played the role in Clint Eastwood's feature film adaptation of the musical.

Jersey Boys tells the story of how Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons went from being unknown New Jersey kids to international pop superstars. The show features over 30 hit songs, including “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry” and “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You.”

The production currently additionally stars Joseph Leo Bwarie as Frankie Valli, Richard H. Blake as Tommy DeVito and Quinn VanAntwerp as Bob Gaudio.
