Burke, Broadway-bound? PEOPLE sure thinks so! Former Dancing With The Stars champion Cheryl Burke is in discussion to make her Broadway debut in the Tony-winning musical Chicago this winter.

“It’s always been a dream of Cheryl’s to perform on Broadway,” a theater tipster told PEOPLE on Wednesday. Cheryl, who is up for the lead role of Roxie Hart in the long-running production, would appear in a limited engagement while DWTS is in the off-season. “She’s excited to show off her other talents besides being a good dancer. She’s been vocally trained and she has a great voice.”

Cheryl was elminated from the ninth season of Dancing With The Stars last month after her celebrity partner, Texas republican Tom DeLay, bowed out of the competition with a season-ending injury.
