FINIAN'S RAINBOW star Cheyenne Jackson is joining the cast of the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning series '30 Rock.' Jackson's first episode on the hit comedy series was last night, Thursday November 12th. The episode is titled 'THE PROBLEM SOLVERS' and also featured Top Chef star Padma Lakshmi.

The always inspiring Cheyenne Jackson is currently balancing a starring role in 'Finian's Rainbow,' a brand new CD and a great role on NBC's '30 Rock,' and the Broadway favorite couldn't be happier.

Cheyenne Jackson can't get enough of the small screen this week. Tomorrow, November 12, he makes his much anticipated debut appearance on 30 Rock, and will also appear on the Today Show with fellow songbird Michael Feinstein to promote their new album The Power of Two. He and Michael will be interviewed and perform a song off of the album. The segment, hosted by Kathie Lee and Hoda, airs at 10:30am EST on MSNBC.

E! News reported earlier this month that Broadway star Cheyenne Jackson will be joining the cast of the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning series '30 Rock' as a regularly recurring character or even potentially as a future permanent fixture.

I support the promotion of local playwrights, especially women. However, 'Lucinda's Bed' plays into every stereotyped moment of a woman's life: self-consciousness, violence, guilt, fear. Don't get me wrong. A stereotype is a stereotype because there is some kernel of truth to it. Who hasn't had to reread Camille Paglia on occasion? However, McCullough seems to allow her heroine's life to be defined by one moment and by doing that, the play became as predictable as Lifetime Television. I accept McCullough's choice to have her lead dissolve into an anti-hero. Some of the greatest female roles in theatre history are anti-heroes, but Lucinda becomes an anti-hero by giving up. And when she does give up, I stopped caring.

There is no escaping Cheyenne Jackson this fall. The 34-year-old leading man, who hails from the Idaho-Washington border, will debut on NBC's 30 Rock next week for a new stint, is starring eight shows a week on Broadway in the revival of Finian's Rainbow, and has just released an album of love songs with theater vet Michael Feinstein, the Power of Two. Recently, entertainment's hottest asset sat down with the Wall Street Journal to discuss his career in 'three mediums,' just what it feels like to get those great reviews, and growing up without running water.
