After watching Jay Armstrong Johnson sing his big The Mad Ones
showstopper, you too would hop in the car to anywhere. Jay plays Adam, the high school sweetheart of the main character Samantha Brown, and late in the show he begs her to take a chance and "Run Away with Me". Jay brings so much humor and warmth to this cult favorite from Kerrigan and Lowdermilk—that "country song" delivery, the "tie you down" sass, then those big notes toward the end. Check him out in this exclusive sneak peek above, and don't miss him sing the entire thing live at off-Broadway's 59E59 Theater through December 17.Skip to main content
