Neil Patrick Harris will return to Broadway in 2014

We know he’s one heckuva Tony Awards host but will Neil Patrick Harris become a Tony Award winner?

It could happen now that it’s just been announced that he is returning to Broadway in 2014 to star as an East German transgender singer in a revival of Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

By that time, NPH will have completed a 10 year run as Barney Stinson on the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother and be free to return to the Broadway stage where he had previously appeared in Assassins, Proof and Cabaret. He most recently tackled the leading role of Bobby in the New York Philharmonic’s concert version of Stephen Sondheim’s Company.

The show will premiere in the Spring of 2014, and marks the Great White Way debut of the rock musical.

“I am simultaneously ecstatic and terrified to be stepping into Hedwig’s heels,” he said in a statement. “It is truly a once-in-a-lifetime role and I can’t wait to begin the journey.”

The show will be produced on Broadway by David Binder and Jayne Baron Sherman. 101 Productions, Ltd are the executive producers.
