High School Musical's Corbin Bleu Hits the Heights at West Side Story

Corbin Bleu, former star of Disney's High School Musical series has been a busy Broadway bee these days: he's rehearsing for his January 25 debut as leading man Usnavi in the Tony-winning hit In the Heights. The freestyling triple-threat got a little break from his daily grind on January 20 and spent his downtime at another New York-centric Broadway hit: West Side Story. Bleu was so moved by the famous tale of ill-fated love that he just had to get backstage for a quick visit with stars Josefina Scaglione, Tony winner Karen Olivo (an In the Heights alum), George Akram, John Arthur Greene, Jeremy Jordan and more at the Palace Theatre. Here's hoping the seasoned cast can get a night off to come see Bleu strut his stuff in return. Click through to see Corbin Bleu hit new Heights with his fellow Broadway brethren.
