Career

Team Starkid

Darren is part of the theater production group Team StarKid based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. His most popular role with Team Starkid was as Harry Potter in "A Very Potter Musical", and "A Very Potter Sequel". He is credited with writing or co-writing many of the songs used in these two productions, and the soundtrack is available on iTunes.

Glee

He will be joining the cast of Glee as Blaine, a new gay student in the school. It is rumored his character will be a love interest for Kurt Hummel. Glee creator Ryan Murphy stated, "Darren has a major, major arc...He sort of becomes Kurt's mentor and then maybe love-he had to leave his own school because of bullying and goes to an all-boys academy and finds acceptance because that school has a no-bullying, zero-tolerance policy. So Kurt really admires him and respects him. He plays someone who's one year older than Chris' character, so he's the old pro."
