Show People With Paul Wontorek

ALEX NEWELL has always turned heads: From the time the young performer appeared on The Glee Project to his subsequent role on the hit musical series as transgender student Unique Adams to his pop music career, his talent (and wardrobe) knows no bounds. Newell is currently wowing audiences in the Tony-winning revival of Once On This Island as the goddess Asaka, Mother of the Earth. Whether he's twirling in a bright tablecloth or belting "Mama Will Provide" to the heavens, his is a performance that cannot escape notice. Newell stopped by Show People with Paul Wontorek to discuss his dream roles (guess which Schuyler sister he wants to play in Hamilton?), how he's triumphed despite losing The Glee Project and more.
