‘The Outsiders’ Star Brody Grant Returning to Tony-Nominated Role After Month-Long Hiatus


Brody Grant, the Tony-nominated star of "The Outsiders," is returning to the musical after a month hiatus.

Representatives for the show did not give a reason for Grant’s extended absence but said in a statement, “‘The Outsiders’ is a very demanding project. The coming-of-age story follows two rival gangs, the working-class “Greasers” (of which Ponyboy counts himself a member) and the upper-class “Socs.” The Broadway cast includes Sky Lakota-Lynch as Johnny Cade, Brent Comer as Darrell Curtis, Jason Schmidt as Sodapop Curtis, Joshua Boone as Dallas Winston and Emma Pittman as Cherry Valance. “The Outsiders” features a book by Adam Rapp and Justin Levine, with music and lyrics by the folk duo of Jonathan Clay and Zach Chance, known as Jamestown Revival.
