Season 34 of Dancing with the Stars brought Whitney Leavitt and pro Mark Ballas together. The duo was on fire in the ballroom and were early front-runners for the Mirrorball. Alas, it was not meant to be.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star and the fan-favorite pro were sent home just shy of the Season 34 finale. Some fans weren't pleased that Whitney had prior dance experience. Of course, by this time, Season 3 of SLOMW was airing. And Whitney revealed that she only returned to the show so that she could audition for DWTS.

After her stint on DWTS, Whitney nabbed the role of Roxie Hart in the musical Chicago. During Season 34, Whitney and Mark danced an Argentine Tango to the song Cell Block Tango from the popular musical. Of course, Vanderpump Rules and DWTS alum Ariana Madix also played Roxie in 2024.
Now, Whitney and Mark are reuniting on Broadway. PEOPLE reported that Mark is stepping into the role of attorney Billy Flynn for a limited engagement. Mark will hit the stage beginning April 6 and will end his run on May 3. Of course, this isn't Mark's first time on Broadway. He played Frankie Valli in Jersey Boys for nearly a year. He also appeared in Kinky Boots in 2018.
"After spending the last few months in the world of The Traitors, where everything is about lies, murder, and deception, stepping into Chicago feels like a pretty natural next move," Mark explained.

He continued, "I'm so excited to be returning to Broadway, this time as Billy Flynn, and even more excited that I get to share the stage with Whitney, who's already killing it as Roxie Hart. I'm excited to get this partnership back together and make DWTS history."
Meanwhile, according to the show, Whitney's run has been extended due to "an overwhelming demand." Tickets for Chicago are now on sale.
Dancing with the Stars is available to stream on Disney+.
