Corbin Bleu suits up for opening night of his new Broadway musical, Holiday Inn, at Studio 54 in New York City on Thursday night (October 6).
The 27-year-old actor plays Ted in the musical, which centers on Jim, who leaves the bright lights of show business behind to settle down on his farmhouse in Connecticut, but he quickly discovers life isn’t the same without a bit of song and dance and that his farmhouse is boring.
Then, when he meets Linda, a spirited schoolteacher with talent, they turn the farmhouse into a fabulous inn with dazzling performances to celebrate each holiday, from Thanksgiving to the Fourth of July.
“I think the main intimidation was the dancing,” Corbin recently shared with EW about stepping into Fred Astaire‘s shoes. Fred played the role in the 1942 movie.
He added, “When you watch Fred dance, it makes everything look so easy. He just glides. And I think that was my main focus and goal with approaching the choreography, which was to make sure it was in my body enough and to make sure that it didn’t seem like it was work.”

The longtime couple, who became engaged in 2014, tied the knot just over the past weekend in Santa Barbara, Calif., and shared one of the first images from their nuptials with fans on Instagram.
“Any person in this world would be lucky to have this woman by their side, but I am still in awe of the fact that that person is me,” Corbin wrote. “This was the best day of my life. The day I vowed to marry and commit my being to another person, the most beautiful person inside and out. I can’t believe I found someone who cares for me in this way, who turns me on and turns me better. Who loves me in a way I’ve never been loved before. I love you Sasha.”
He continued, “Thank you for agreeing to spend the rest of your life with me. Words cannot describe how grateful to God I am for bringing me to you. I will spend my lifetime with my heart, mind, body, and soul centered with the purpose of living to deserve you, making us the best team we can be, never letting anything or anyone come between us, and loving deeper than we ever could dream of!”

Congratulations to Corbin Bleu and his longtime love Sasha Clements!
The couple just got married on Saturday night (July 23) in Santa Barbara, Calif., according to People.
The pair’s first dance was a Salsa choreographed by Corbin‘s former Dancing With The Stars partner Karina Smirnoff.
“I have to say my favorite part was the feeling that started in my toes and went all the way to the top of my head when Sasha came through the gate to the entrance of our venue and walked down the aisle,” Corbin shared to the mag about the big day. “From the flowing veil in the wind as she walked, to the big smile on her face, it suddenly hit me that this stunning woman that was looking at me was going to marry me and make me the happiest man in the world.”
Sasha, who wore a custom Pnina Tornai wedding dress, added, “Today was the most perfect day. There is not one thing I would change. Corbin‘s vows were incredibly beautiful and it was truly the best day of our lives.”
