STAGE TUBE: GLEE's Chris Colfer Aspires to Become a Broadway Scribe

GLEE's Chris Colfer has Broadway dreams, too.  Like his co-stars Lea Michele, Matthew Morrison and, now, Darren Criss, Colfer hopes to one day find himself performing live for audiences on the Great White Way. Only problem, he believes his dream role has yet to be written.  During a sit down interview at the New Yorker Festival this weekend at the SVA Theater, Colfer implied that he, in fact, hopes to write his own role for the stage, stating that regarding his ideal part "I haven't written them yet."

Billboard.com notes of Colfer's prolific writing career to date: "Colfer has been doing exactly that, making his way outside of "Glee" by writing his own parts as of late. Colfer showed stills from 'Struck By Lightening,' the movie he wrote and starred in alongside Allison Janney and Christina Hendricks. He also briefly discussed his forthcoming novel, a children's book called 'The Land of Stories,' which he said he'd been thinking about since he was seven years old, when his younger sister was diagnosed with a rare from of epilepsy and he was seeking an escape."
