He got involved with community theater in his first show, West Side Story and soon appeared in the production of The Sound of Music as Kurt von Trapp. It was at the age of 18 when Chris starred in Russel Fish: The Sausage and Eggs Incident as Russel Fish and got his first TV role in 2009 on Fox’s Glee.
