NEW YORK (AP) — Jimmy Fallon is tapping the power of Broadway this week.
The talk show host will be introducing a different musical act every night on NBC’s “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” from among the shows playing in Times Square a few blocks away.
It started Monday night with a performance by the cast of the Tony-winning musical “Memphis.” Billie Joe Armstrong is expected tonight to introduce the Tony-winning musical “American Idiot” based on Green Day’s music and Thursday will feature music from the upcoming “Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson.”
It’s Fallon’s first stab at creating a Broadway-themed week.
