Somewhere Over It Is Cheyenne

Broadway MVP and overall hottie Cheyenne Jackson – ask anyone – will star in the Great White Way revival of Finian’s Rainbow, starting previews on Oct. 8 for an Oct. 29 opening.

The show is about Irish fortune hunters in the mythical Southern U.S. state of Missitucky.

Jackson’s previous Broadway credits include Xanadu, All Shook Up, Aida, and Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Sounds like fall in New York just got a bit handsomer, what with Jude Law, and Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman also headed for the stage in the city.

Now, this is how you stimulate tourism.
