Just in time for Broadway lovers and Bobby Darin fans alike, Atlantic Records has announced the much-anticipated release of the Just In Time (Original Broadway Cast Recording).
Starring Tony Award-winner Jonathan Groff, this electrifying recording captures the high-energy, emotionally charged performances that have made Just In Time one of the most acclaimed musicals of 2025.
Launching digitally on Friday, August 15, with physical editions to follow on October 24, this release reintroduces Darin’s legendary catalog through the fresh, bold arrangements of Andrew Resnick and Michael Thurber.
Groff’s Unstoppable Star Power and a Musical Legacy Reborn
At the heart of Just In Time is Jonathan Groff—a Broadway darling who’s found a natural synergy with Bobby Darin’s timeless music. From “Beyond the Sea” to “Dream Lover,” Groff’s performance channels Darin’s charm while adding layers of modern emotion and theatricality.
“This album felt destined to be made at Atlantic,”
Craig Rosen and Michael Parker of Atlantic Records.
“Bobby Darin is a key part of our legacy…
Having Jonathan Groff record vocals here, just as Darin once did, brought everything full circle.”
To celebrate the album’s release, fans can now stream two standout numbers: the toe-tapping “Splish Splash” and a show-stopping mashup of “This Could Be the Start of Something Big / Just In Time.” These early tracks offer a sonic taste of what critics have called a “swinging, immersive, and transformative” journey through the highs and heartbreaks of Darin’s life.
A Broadway Smash Hit at Circle in the Square Theatre
Currently playing at Circle in the Square Theatre in the heart of Times Square, Just In Time opened to rave reviews in April 2025 and has since garnered six Tony Award nominations, including:
-
Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical (Jonathan Groff)
-
Best Orchestrations
-

-
Best Sound Design

Best Featured Actress (Gracie Lawrence)
Under the visionary direction of Alex Timbers (Moulin Rouge!, Here Lies Love), the musical transforms the theater into an intimate, late-night nightclub. This immersive staging pairs a live, on-stage band with a stellar ensemble cast to bring Darin’s journey to life—one performance at a time.
