A 'Glee' star is joining an Off Broadway dance show and we can't think of a better fit

Off Broadway’s buzziest dance party just got a very recognizable new guest.

Glee star (and former Beyonce backup dancer and Dancing With the Stars contestant) Heather Morris will join the cast of 11 to Midnight for a limited engagement from April 9 through May 11 at the Orpheum Theatre. The hit Off Broadway dance musical has been playing there since it opened on February 11, and recently extended its run through May 31.

Co-created by and starring viral choreographers Austin and Marideth Telenko (aka Cost n’ Mayor on TikTok), 11 to Midnight is less a traditional musical and more a high-energy theatrical experience set during a New Year’s Eve apartment party.

“It has been a bucket-list dream of mine to perform on a New York stage, and I couldn’t think of a better way to do that than becoming a part of the 11 to Midnight family," Morris said in a statement. "I’m thrilled to be working alongside Austin and Marideth. I’ve been a fan of their choreography from afar for a long time and I’m honored to be helping their work come to life onstage. Can’t wait to see you all at The Orpheum in April!”

The show is stuffed with “theatrical street-style dance” paired with a genre-hopping soundtrack and original music from Jacob Aviner, Spencer Novich and Steve Toulmin. Directed by Lyndsay Magid Aviner, the production includes scenic design by Arnell Sancianco, costume design by Barbara Erin Delo, lighting design by Jeff Croiter and Sean Beach, sound design by Ben Scheff and special effects by Jeremy Chernick.

Alongside Morris and the Telenkos will be Melissa Becraft, Brendon Chan, Kati Simon, Ache Richardson, Makenzie Olsen and Tyson Hill, with Kristalyn Gill and Jake Urban as swings. Notably, the show was cast via an international online casting call that saw over 500 performers audition.

And of course, Morris isn't the only Glee star on the New York boards this spring. A few blocks uptown, Lea Michele continues her run in the Broadway revival of Chess.
