"I am beyond stoked to be joining the cast of NEWSical The Musical," said Harry in a statement. "The brilliance of Tom D'Angora, coupled with such a formidable cast, made this a production I simply couldn't refuse!"

Producer D'Angora added, "Jackée starring in NEWSical is beyond my wildest dreams and expectations. I have said it before and I will say it again: Jackée is a comedic genius and she can sing her face off. Hands down, I am the luckiest producer in New York theatre this season!"

NEWSical The Musical has previously featured special guests that include Perez Hilton, Andrea McArdle, Cheri Oteri and Carson Kressley.

NEWSical The Musical, according to press notes, "is the forever changing, completely un-sanitized musical mockery of all the news that's fit to spoof.
