Janet Dacal and Darren Ritchie, who co-starred as Alice and Jack in the just-closed Broadway musical Wonderland, are engaged to be married.
Ritchie proposed during the curtain call of the show’s final performance on Sunday, May 15 at the Marriott Marquis Theatre.

The couple met when they did a recording of the show’s score over two years ago, and later starrred in both productions of the show in Tampa, Florida and then on Broadway.

Dacal previously appeared on Broadway in In the Heights. Ritchie’s prior Broadway credits include Thoroughly Modern Millie.
