Green Day front man Billie Joe Armstrong is set to join the cast of the Broadway musical he helped create based on their 2004 album’American Idiot’.
The singer is to take up the role of persuasive drug dealer St. Jimmy for eight performances from Tuesday (September 28) through to October 3.
Armstrong will temporarily replace actor Tony Vincent, who is on leave until October 12 following a personal family matter, reports the Associated Press.
The singer will be making his Broadway debut at the St. James Theatre for the musical he composed and co-wrote.
The show follows an anti-hero who flees a deadening suburbia and descends into sex, drugs and fierce guitar playing in his quest to find himself in the big city.
