<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif"">After studying musical theater, vocal performance and dance at NYU’s Tisch School of The Arts, Matthew Morrison made his debut on Broadway in
<i>Footloose</i>, followed by <i>The Rocky Horror Picture Show</i>. However, it was his role as Link Larkin in the original cast of the Broadway production of
<i>Hairspray</i> that served as his breakthrough and led to him being cast in the critically acclaimed
<i>The Light In The Piazza</i>. His portrayal of young lover Fabrizio Naccarelli garnered him a TONY nomination for best performance by a featured actor in a musical. He subsequently received a Drama Desk nomination for outstanding actor in the off-Broadway
musical <i>10 Million Miles</i> and reprised the role of Lieutenant Cable in Lincoln Center’s TONY-nominated production of
<i>South Pacific</i>. Matthew soon followed these performances with his role as the perpetually optimistic high school teacher Will Schuester on FOX TV’s
<i>Glee</i>, which he has received both EMMY and two Golden Globe nominations. He most recently co-starred alongside Cameron Diaz and Jennifer Lopez in the major motion picture
<i>What To Expect When You’re Expecting</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
