Darren Criss talks choosing perfect kissers!

GLEE breakout star and recognizable Broadway baby Darren Criss headlines 2014 Best Musical Revival HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH and discusses his audience participation guidelines as part of a new interview.

Criss shares of selecting the ideal "Sugar Daddy" make-out partner, "Sometimes, if there's something particularly stand-outish about somebody. Sometimes, maybe someone's not paying attention. That'll get you in trouble!"

Furthermore, Criss adds of his commitment to the role, "Once the show starts and she gets going, I'm possessed by the Hedwig demon, and I really can't be held accountable for anything she says or does."

Criss concludes, "I'm checked out. I'm in a box somewhere else."

Check out the original article on the matter here.

The official current description of HEDWIG & THE ANGRY INCH is as follows: "John Cameron Mitchell, who with composer Stephen Trask wrote Hedwig and the Angry in both the 1998 off-Broadway production and the 2001 film. The landmark musical is directed by Tony Award® winner Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening). Heartbreaking and wickedly funny, this raucously entertaining show has inspired a generation. Beginning April 29, Darren Criss ("Glee," How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying) returns to Broadway for a 12-week engagement."
