Glee costars Lea Michele, Jenna Ushkowitz, Kevin McHale, and Becca Tobin came together for a rare mini reunion.
Michele, Ushkowitz, and Tobin came to support their former costar McHale at the Friday performance of The Rocky Horror Show.
McHale, who plays Brad Majors in the musical, previously dedicated his performance to his late castmate Cory Monteith, who took on the same role on an episode of Glee.
Damn it, Janet! What are you doing here?
Glee costars Lea Michele, Jenna Ushkowitz, and Becca Tobin came together for a rare reunion at the Friday performance of The Rocky Horror Show to support their former castmate Kevin McHale.
Sharing the moment to Instagram, the Glee alums lip-synced to an audio of one of the show’s more infamous lines, “You’re all minorities. You’re in the glee club.”
McHale is currently playing Brad Majors in the Broadway production of The Rocky Horror Show. When he assumed the role in August, he dedicated his first performance to his late Glee castmate Cory Monteith, who died in 2013 at the age of 31 after an accidental overdose.
In the show’s playbill, a cast member biography for McHale read, “For Cory. His Forever Brad.”
Ahead of his Broadway debut, McHale shared on social media that he had been reminded of Monteith numerous times as he prepared to take the stage.

“Sitting at breakfast and it’s song after song Cory sang on Glee,” McHale wrote on Instagram. “That’s my Brad.”

During the second season of Glee, the New Directions put on their own production of The Rocky Horror Show. Finn (Monteith) was cast in the role of Brad Majors while Rachel (Michele) played Janet Weiss. Meanwhile, Artie (McHale) served as the narrator in the Glee version, and Tina (Ushkowitz) shared the role of Columbia with Brittany (Heather Morris). (Tobin would not join Glee until season 4.)
This mini Glee reunion comes after a series revival was greenlit at Disney+ and Hulu on Oct. 21. It’s unclear when the new iteration of the show will air. While co-creator Ryan Murphy teased that he had spoken to “around 10 of the original cast members” who were “very enthusiastic” about returning, an official cast announcement has yet to be made.

Michele has previously indicated that she is open to returning to McKinley High, saying she would “follow Ryan wherever he goes.”
“I love Glee. I will always love Glee,” Michele told E! News on Sept. 11. “I love Ryan Murphy. It just holds such a special place in my heart for me.”
