    Former Saturday Night Live cast member Alex Moffat is joining the cast of Off Broadway’s The Big Gay Jamboree , the much-anticipated follow-up from Marla Mindelle, co-author and original star of the wildly popular musical comedy Titaníque .

    Moffat will appear alongside the previously announced Mindelle, as well as newly announced Paris Nix, Constantine Rousouli (a Titaníque co-creator and original cast member), and Natalie Walker, with Jaden Dominique, Brad Greer, Jeremiah Ginn, Amanda Lee, Jillian Mueller, Olivia Puckett, Melvin Tunstall, Clyde Voce, Cortney Wolfson, and John Yi rounding out the ensemble.

    The new casting was announced today by producers Sue Wagner, John Johnson, and LuckyChap. Directed and choreographed by Connor Gallagher, The Big Gay Jamboree , features a book by Mindelle and Jonathan Parks-Ramage, with music & lyrics by Mindelle and Philip Drennen.

    Preview performances begin on September 14 at the Orpheum Theatre, with an opening night set for October 1.

    The Big Gay Jamboree synopsis: Stacey (Mindelle), after blacking out from 18 Jägerbombs, wakes up hungover in the most terrifying place of all – an Off-Broadway musical. With no memory of how she got there, Stacey is forced to put her BFA in theater to use, belt her face off, and figure out how the hell she’s gonna escape this 1940s golden age musical…while a live audience watches.

    Moffat made his Broadway debut last year in The Cottage , directed by Jason Alexander and starring Eric McCormack and Laura Bell Bundy.

    After wrapping his six-season run on Saturday Night Live as a main cast member, Moffat will next appear in Bill Lawrence’s Bad Monkey for Apple TV+. He can also be seen in FX’s Emmy-nominated The Bear and Showtime’s Billions and the films Susie Searches , which recently screened at TIFF, Holidate for Netflix, the live action hybrid feature Clifford for Paramount, Someone Great for Netflix and the indie Opening Act .
