“The cast and I were so moved by the love and enthusiasm of our fans at last year’s concerts that we knew we had to do it again,” Glee creator Ryan Murphy. “There is something magical about thousands of ‘Gleeks’ coming together to share a special night with our cast, and this tour is one way we can thank them for their unbelievable support from the beginning.”
And Chord is happy to be joining the team!
“Joining the cast this year has been like hopping on a fast-moving train,” he saidt. “I have already had so many incredible experiences, but the chance to perform live on stages across the U.S., Canada and Europe takes the cake. This is too cool.”
And Darren agrees!
