Though Jonas is quite young, he is in fact a Broadway veteran with previous roles in Annie Get Your Gun, Beauty and the Beast and Les Miserables. He also starred in a production of Les Miserables in London last year, and a performance of Hairspray at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles earlier this year.
