The Skeleton House

Julian Thorne doesn't do "show-choir chic." He doesn't do jazz hands, and he definitely doesn't do happy endings. As a NYADA freshman living with Type 1 Bipolar disorder, Julian spends his nights in a cold Bushwick studio turning his internal chaos into the most raw, visceral rock musical Broadway has seen in a decade.

When the McKinley High clique-led by the perpetually polished Rachel Berry and Kurt Hummel-try to claim the leads in his funded workshop, they expect a star vehicle. Instead, they hit a wall of cold, clinical reality.

Julian isn't looking for a star. He's looking for the truth.

Enter Blaine Anderson: the boy with the "perfect" gelled hair and the "perfect" Leading Man smile. To Kurt, Blaine is a shiny accessory. To Julian, Blaine is a boy vibrating with the need to be real.

To get the part of the "Anchor," Blaine will have to wash out the gel, lose the mask, and learn to sit in the dark. But as the "Skeleton House" begins to spin, Blaine must decide if he's ready to leave the "Glee" bubble behind-or if the gravity of Julian's world is too much to handle.
