Daniel, June 3rd, 2025The Tony Nominee Will Leave The Hit Show In August
Currently running at New York's Belasco Theatre, Maybe Happy Ending has announced that its star Darren Criss will be playing his last performance on August 31.
The former Glee star released the following statement: "When I first hit the road with Maybe Happy Ending, the only certainty was the shared passion everyone brought to it. It was a profoundly beautiful adventure I jumped into because I was madly in love with the piece and all the little robots involved. I didn't know how far it would go; I just hoped it could be shared, for as long and with as many people as possible. Maybe Happy Ending is much bigger than me, and I truly believe it will shine long after my time with this production. But for now, it gives me great joy to declare that I will be ...going to Jeju!' eight times a week, every week, until August 31! And as I have for the last several magical months, I'll be looking forward to it every single time."
Criss is currently playing HelperBot Oliver, who has reached the end of his service and is content to enjoy his retirement in his Seoul apartment, listening to jazz and watering his plants. But when his neighbor Claire (Shen) knocks on his door seeking a charger, it looks like these two androids do dream of something...love! Follow Oliver and Claire has they head out on an adventure like no other. A balm to those worried by the AI takeover, Maybe Happy Ending is a sweet look at the inner lives of robots, and just what they can experience.
