Last night, the cast of FOX's musical dramedy GLEE came out in full force to show their support for fellow Gleek Darren Criss, currently starring in the title role of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre.

Kevin McHale, who portrayed Artie Abrams in the series, turned to Instagram to share a photo of the reunion (at left) along with the caption "Sometimes the old gang gets back together to see one of its own murder the stage." Also joining in the fun was Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina Cohen-Chang) and Becca Tobin (Kitty Wilde).

Through six seasons, the musical comedy GLEE followed a group of ambitious and talented young adults in search of strength, acceptance and, ultimately, their voice.

GLEE became a bona fide cultural phenomenon, receiving prestigious honors, including a Golden Globe Award and a Peabody Award. The series boasted critical acclaim, two Grammy Award nominations, two Platinum and five Gold albums, more than 53 million songs and more than 13 million albums sold worldwide, two sold-out concert tours, a 3-D movie, four Emmy Awards and three Golden Globes, including the award for Best Television Series - Comedy or Musical. The series reached its milestone 100th episode this past season with a memorable rendition of the hit that put the show on the map, "Don't Stop Believin'."

GLEE attracted A-list guest stars, including Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, Sarah Jessica Parker, Shirley MacLaine, John Stamos, Kristin Chenoweth, Olivia Newton-John, Britney Spears, Neil Patrick Harris, Peter Facinelli, June Squibb, Demi Lovato and Adam Lambert, among many others.
