Hugh Jackman practices safe sex like nobody else. His sweet-and-hot new show “Hugh Jackman: Back on Broadway,” which opened on Thursday night at the Broadhurst Theater, is a great, guilt-free platonic one-night stand. O.K., so maybe the guy tends to run on about himself (his dreams, his job, his family, you know the drill) and cracks a few too many hokey jokes.

SNIKT!, any comic-book fan can tell you, is the sound of Wolverine’s spring-loaded claws lancing out from betwixt his manly X-knuckles. It’s also, I suspect, the sound that goes through Hugh Jackman’s head whenever he successfully pulls off another improbable career move. Action-movie star and Broadway song-and-dance man? No worries, mate.
