Justin Guarini Reveals He Will Star in Britney Spears Musical on Broadway



American Idol alum Justin Guarini called into On Air with Ryan Seacrest on Friday, September 20, to talk about his podcast and he had some exciting news to share.
"Later on this month I am going to start in a workshop for a show that is going to Broadway and it's called Once Upon a One More Time and it is the Britney Spears musical," Justin reveals.
A modern story of fairy-tale princesses told using popstar's music.
"I play Prince Charming," he says. "They created this beautiful story about female empowerment and breaking free from the chains of a lot of the things that women have to deal with and have had to deal with throughout time....It is just a funny, touching, awesome show."
"I cannot wait for you guys to see it on Broadway, he adds. "It's headed that way, probably next season."
In the meantime, you can hear Justin on his podcast Audition Secrets.
"It's my love letter to my people in the entertainment community who have to go out and slog every single day," he explains. "Instead of being confused and wondering what's wrong with me and walking into the room begging for a job, I love teaching people that's not how it works. The power structure is not what we thought....If we just go in and do what we do from our perspective with our experience then there is no competition."
Justin's book Audition Secrets is out now and you can check out the podcast here.

The Theatre Podcast - August 2, 2019



"Being a guest on @thetheaterpodcast was so much fun...and I've got a BIG announcement to make in a few weeks when it airs!!!"


Opening Rounds of Idol - August 1, 2019


"I had a chance to sit on the other side of the table at the opening rounds of Idol auditions...and let me tell you I don't envy any of the judges. Saying 'no' is one of the hardest things to do, especially when you see lovely and carry-eyed performers come up to you and give you their all...but don't quite fit the bill. You can see, by the look on my face that I was having a hard time making my mind up about a few of them...but none the less I'm so proud of everyone who came up and gave their all!!"

"Lovesick" - Bucks County Playhouse - February 14 & 15, 2018



I spent the EARLY morning doing interviews with two of Philly's finest radio stations, The Preston & Steve Show, and KYW1060. I'm proud to be premiering my new one-man show "Lovesick" at The Bucks County Playhouse on Feb 14th & 15th. Directed by Broadway Veteran Gordon Greenberg 

Try something a little different for Valentines Day, and join me for a night of laughs, intimate stories from my lovesick life, a great Cabaret atmosphere (there will be tables and drinks) and music that you know and love. 

Watch as my 9-piece band and I weave the craziness of my lifelong battle to find love together with amazing songs from Bacharach, Beck, Donny  Hathaway, Harry Connick Jr. and more. I'm going to pick a few people to come up and join me on stage, so be prepared for a wonderful night of love, and laughter.
