Billie Joe to appear in American Idiot live show
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 27 September 2010
Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong will appear in the stage musical based on his band’s ‘American Idiot’ album for eight performances this week.
According to the Associated Press, Armstrong will fill in for a regular cast member who has taken two weeks off from the Broadway show for personal reasons. He will play the role of persuasive drug dealer St Jimmy.
The musical version of ‘American Idiot’, which was originally staged in California last year, opened in New York back in March.
