We Want Tommy: Tony Nominee Tom Hewitt Returns to Broadway's Chicago

A familiar face is stepping back into the Broadway courtroom. Tom Hewitt returns to Chicago on August 1 as the silver-tongued Billy Flynn. The Tony nominee takes over for Jane the Virgin star Jaime Camil, who took his final bow at the Ambassador Theatre on July 31.

Hewitt first donned a tux to play Billy Flynn on Broadway in 2008. He has returned to the role numerous times since. His additional credits include a Tony-nominated turn as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Show, The Lion King, Dracula, Jesus Christ Superstar, Doctor Zhivago and—most recently—Amazing Grace.

In addition to Hewitt, the current cast features Bianca Marroquin as Roxie Hart, Amra-Faye Wright as Velma Kelly, Roz Ryan as Matron Mama Morton, Raymond Bokhour as Amos Hart and R. Lowe as Mary Sunshine.
