Whitney Leavitt is headed back to Broadway this winter.

The unexpected breakout star from Hulu’s “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” announced on Thursday that she will return to Broadway to play the role of Sandra Dee in “Just in Time.”

The musical tells the story of American singer-songwriter and actor Bobby Darin. Dee, the character Leavitt will play, was a famous Hollywood actress and married to Darin.

Earlier this year, Leavitt made her Broadway debut when she played the role of Roxie Hart in “Chicago.” After “unprecedented demand,” Leavitt ended up extending her run.

Leavitt will play Dee for a six-week run from Dec. 1 through Jan. 10.

She previously announced she will leave the reality show that put her in the limelight.
