According to published reports, GLEE's New Directions are heading to New York City in the season two finale, and filming will begin at Lincoln Center in a few weeks. In the episode, the glee club will compete with Vocal Adrenaline (lead by Broadway veterans Jonathan Groff as Jesse St. James and Cheyenne Jackson as Dustin Goolsby) and the Warblers (headed by Darren Criss as Blaine) at Nationals. The hit series is currently finishing up negotiations with the venue.

In the short amount of time since GLEE hit the airwaves, the series has racked up two Platinum and two Gold albums, two Grammy Award nominations, more than 22 million song downloads, the No. 1 soundtrack of 2010 ("The Christmas Album") and an incredible 19 Emmy and 11 Golden Globe nominations, as well as four Emmy Awards and three Golden Globes, including the award for Best Television Series Comedy or Musical. The critically acclaimed "Glee Live! In Concert!," starring 14 members of the television show's cast, will return to North American concert stages this spring.

GLEE follows an optimistic teacher who - against all odds and a malicious cheerleading coach - inspires McKinley High's Glee Club to conquer the world one singing competition at a time. GLEE stars Dianna Agron, Chris Colfer, Jessalyn Gilsig, Jane Lynch, Jayma Mays, Kevin McHale, Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Matthew Morrison, Amber Riley, Mark Salling and Jenna Ushkowitz.

GLEE is produced by Ryan Murphy Television in association with 20th Century Fox Television. Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Ian Brennan are co-creators of the series. Murphy, Falchuk and Dante di Loreto serve as executive producers, while Ian Brennan serves as co-executive producer.
