Lea Michele and Darren Criss have announced additional dates for their joint LM/DC Tour, kicking off on May 30 at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee.

In addition to previously announced dates, Michele and Criss will also perform in Chicago, St. Louis, Atlanta, and Durham and Charlotte, North Carolina. The concerts will include songs from Broadway, Glee, and original songs from the artists' recent solo albums.

Criss joined the cast of Glee in its second season as Blaine Anderson, the lead singer of the Dalton Academy Warblers. He made his Broadway debut in 2012, replacing Daniel Radcliffe as J. Pierrepont Finch in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying, and returned to Broadway in 2015 to take on the title role in Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

Michele has been seen on Broadway in Les Misérables, Ragtime, Fiddler on the Roof, and Spring Awakening, in which she originated the role of Wendla. She received an Emmy nomination, two Golden Globe nominations, and three Grammy nominations for her work as Rachel Berry throughout all six seasons of Glee. She went on to star as Hester Ulrich on the Fox series Scream Queens and as Valentina Barella on the ABC sitcom The Mayor, and has released two studio albums: Louder (2014) and Places (2017).
