At a recent AOL BUILD event for GLEE star Chris Colfer's 'LAND OF STORIES' book series, our very own BroadwayGirlNYC asked the "honorary Broadway star" when and how he'll be making his Broadway debut.

"I mean I would absolutely love to," Colfer said. "And I've had many, many meetings and whatnot about doing it, and I think I'm just kind of looking for the right thing. I really want to originate or create something new. Whether in a new musical or a new play or a revival, just as long as it's new. But I can't wait. And yeah, there are things in the works. I've gotta do it, it's in my blood. I can't not."

The fourth book in Colfer's 'LAND OF STORIES' series, BEYOND THE KINGDOMS, follows twins Alex and Connor and their adventures with Goldilocks, Jack, Red Riding Hood, Mother Goose and more to stop The Masked Man before time runs out. So begins a race through the magical Land of Oz, the fantastical world of Neverland, the madness of Wonderland, and beyond.
