GLEE's New Directions to Put on a School Musical in Season 3

Fox's hit television show GLEE will return Tuesday nights Sept. 20., and Broadway veteran Lea Michele gave the Hollywood Reporter some hints for whats coming in the third season. Michele revealed that the New Directions kids will be auditioning for their high school musical, commenting: "[It's a] classic Broadway musical with one female lead and one male lead. [Rachel is] vying for the lead in the school musical and she has a little competition with Mercedes."

Additionally, Chris Colfer revealed that hs charachter Kurt will be in competition for the lead with Blaine, played by Darren Criss. "It wouldn't be Kurt without a big huge musical number that includes dangerous effects. He definitely tries his hardest to persuade them that he can be this role."

On when to expect Blaine at McKinley High, Colfer added: "It could be the first episode, it could be the second but it could be the last," Colfer teased. "I'm pretty sure, yes [Blaine will be at McKinley]."

During this season of GLEE, Lea Michele, Monteith and Colfer will begin their senior year. Although the stars will graduate from McKinley, it doesn't necessarily mean that they will leave the show.

GLEE's third season airs Tuesday, September 20 on FOX.
