Well this is just the best Broadway news we have heard in ages.

The New York Times reports that Neil Patrick Harris, star of How I Met Your Mother and perennial awards show host, is making his big return to Broadway to star in Hedwig and the Angry Inch, set to premiere in the spring of 2014.

NPH will be playing Hedwig, the role originated by John Cameron Mitchell, an East German-born, transgender rock singer who loves colorful gummi bears, David Bowie and dresses made of wig hair.

Mitchell's play, while a hit off-Broadway in 1999 and an award winning 2001 film, has never before played on Broadway.

This will be Harris' first time back to Broadway since he starred in Assassins in 2004.

Now let's all go listen to "The Origin of Love" for the rest of the day.
