Currently: Making his Broadway debut as Roger, a goofy yet lovable member of Danny Zuko's gang the T-Birds in Grease....

Grease Is the Word: Everidge arrived in New York a year ago without a job, a place to liveor his luggage. "I landed on a Wednesday, staying with friends, and the airline lost my bags," he recalls. "They found the bags Thursday night, and I went into my Grease audition Friday!" Though a previous internship at a theatrical casting agency helped him get a foot in the door, he wasn't expecting an easy ride. "I wasn't sure if I was the 'type' for this show," he admits. "I figured they were looking for cookie-cutter musical theater 'built' kinda guys, so when I got that first callback, I was so happy, like 'This is all I need!'" Numerous callbacks later, he was cast, prior to the launch of Grease: You're The One That I Want on TV. Yet he still had nowhere to live: "I ended up moving home to San Antonio from January to June, while they did the reality show. I'd landed this dream job, but I was still broke and unemployed," he says with a wry chuckle
