    Julio Rey - opened his second Broadway as a swing in LEMPICKA.

    Originally from San Juan, Puerto Rico; Julio grew up moving all over the country, stopped in Pennsylvania to get his BFA from Penn State, and moved to NYC six months before Covid-19 took over. Since then Julio made his Broadway and Principal debut in BAD CINDERELLA as the understudy for Prince Sebastian. This past Sunday he also just opened his second Broadway as a swing in LEMPICKA. Other credits include: WHITE CHRISTMAS (Phil Davis, CSTC), THE GREAT GATSBY (Papermill Playhouse), THE GRISWOLDS’ BROADWAY VACATION (The 5th Avenue Theatre), TITANIC (Fleet, Milwaukee Rep), 42nd St (Billy Lawlor, The Rev), and MAMMA MIA (Sky, NSMT).
    Thanks to Coach Joe for helping stay nice and strong to keep up with the Broadway schedule!!!

    And yes before a matinee totally works! I could honestly do any day I have a matinee so whatever is best for the photographer I can make sure I’m at the theatre early whenever they’re available.
    -Julio
