First Look! Corbin Bleu Graduates to Broadway's In the Heights

Corbin Bleu exploded onto the screen in 2006 as one of the soon-to-be superstars of Disney's megahit High School Musical series. Four years later, this New York native is getting back to his roots, making his Broadway debut as Tony Award winning musical In the Heights' newest leading man, Usnavi. Following in the footsteps of Tony-winner and show creator Lin-Manuel Miranda and his successor, Javier Munoz, is no easy task, but fortunately the multitalented Bleu has the chops, enthusiasm (just check out his Heights-happy Twitter feed) and the support of one of the tightest casts on Broadway to help make sure his transition from screen player to board-trotter is as sweet as Abuela Claudia's coffee. We've got an sneak peek of Bleu hitting the Heights, so scroll down for a glimpse of who audiences will meet when the curtain rises at the Richard Rodgers Theatre on January 25.
