Written by . Published: October 25 2011
Aaron Carter is set to make his debut on the New York stage in an off-Broadway play.
The 23-year-old singer has signed up to star in The Fantasticks at the Big Apple's Snapple Theatre Center.
The play's writer Tom Jones tells Playbill, "Never in the 51-year
history of The Fantasticks have we opted to cast someone with Aaron
Carter's level of fame, instead quietly enjoying our reputation for
giving many future stars their first professional performing
gig.
"But when I saw the level of enthusiasm, professionalism and sheer
talent Aaron brought to us, I knew that he would be an incredibly
exciting addition to The Fantasticks family.
Carter's run will kick off on 7 November (11).
