Former NSYNC member Joey Fatone, who will return to the role of Lance in the Broadway company of & Juliet April 22 at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre, will host a sing-along performance of the hit jukebox musical May 8 at 7 PM.
May 8 will mark the Broadway musical鈥檚 fourth sing-along performance. In 2024, Backstreet Boys鈥� AJ McLean and NSYNC鈥檚 JC Chasez both hosted these special performances, joining the company for surprise encores
following the show. Fatone will continue this tradition with a
surprise performance following the curtain call.
Pop star Fatone, whose earlier Broadway credits include Rent and Little Shop of Horrors, first played Lance January 21鈥揗arch 16. His second engagement is scheduled to continue through July 31.
Tickets for the & Juliet sing-along, and all performances, are available at the Stephen Sondheim Theatre box office or at .

Though the show has characters singing NSYNC songs, Lance (Fatone) is not one of them鈥攈is big numbers in the show are songs made famous by the Backstreet Boys, who were considered NSYNC's rivals in the '90s.
