A note from Joker Rachel Martin host: When I grew up, my parents talked a lot about the goal. They wanted my brothers and sisters and I find careers who were satisfactory, but they really wanted us to find our goal – what we were put in the world. And this is the idea that came to my mind when I thought of how to present Jonathan Groff. Because yes, it is a mega talent with a long list of Broadway credits, including “Spring Awakening” and “Hamilton”. He won a Tony Award for his role in “Merrily We Roll Long” and now he is nominated for another Tony for his new musical on the singer Bobby Darin called “Just in Time”.
But when I watch Jonathan Groff play, it’s more than looking at a person to do what she likes – it’s looking at a person to live her goal. It is as if he could do nothing else if he was trying. And watching him on stage, doing his very special thing is just a full joy.
