Whitney Leavitt and Mark Ballas will bring the ballroom to Broadway this spring for a limited run in the hit musical, Chicago.

PEOPLE can exclusively reveal the Dancing with the Stars season 34 semifinalists are reuniting on stage for a four-week limited engagement in the show beginning Monday, April 6 and running through Sunday, May 3.

Mark Ballas is returning to Broadway in Chicago and the “Dancing with the Stars” pro will be reuniting with an old friend.

Ballas, playing slippery lawyer Billy Flynn starting April 6, will share the stage with his Roxie, Whitney Leavitt, the “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star who was his dancing partner on “Dancing with the Stars” last year.

Whitney Leavitt has been leaning on former Broadway stars as she prepares to take the stage.

The 32-year-old performer — who rose to fame as the breakout star from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and recently twirled her way to the semi-finals on the 34th season of Dancing with the Stars — is set to make her Broadway debut on Feb. 2 in the iconic role of Roxie Hart in Chicago. And as she gears up for opening night, Leavitt has looked to several other iconic women who have played the part for advice.

Tony winner Alex Newell, currently lording over the Cook County Jail as Matron “Mama” Morton in Chicago on Broadway, made a pit-stop at the Broadway.com studio to deliver the character’s signature number, “When You’re Good to Mama.” Can’t get enough of Newell’s fierce vocals?
