Center Stage Theatre recently announced a new performance series for their education students called Broadway at Center Stage. The event brings Broadway stars to Shelton to talk about their experiences growing up in the theater, their personal journeys to Broadway, and their best advice for being successful in the world of professional theater. The evening is capped off with a Q&A, a performance, and a meet and greet with the audience.
The first guest for Broadway at Center Stage is Barrett Wilbert Weed, who is currently playing Janis Sarkisian in Mean Girls. Barrett will be performing on Monday, September 17th at 6:30pm. Next up, on October 29th at 5:00pm, is Telly Leung who is playing the title role of Aladdin at the New Amsterdam Theatre on Broadway.

He made his Broadway debut in 2002 in Flower Drum Song with Lea Salonga and the two teamed back up again in 2015 in Allegiance. Telly's other Broadway credits include Pacific Overtures, Rent, Godspell, and In Transit. Glee fans will recognize him as Wes, a member of Dalton Academy's Warblers.
