[newsImage]062910_johng.jpg[/newsImage]Recently Broadway.com did a excellent interview with John Gallagher, the lead actor Jesus of Suburbia, in Green Day's hit musical American Idiot. In the interview they cover a vast number of topics from what it was like collaborating with the band on the show to a possible John Gallagher appearance on the TV show Glee.

A: I've never had to work this hard on anything I've attempted to do on stage. It requires a lot of discipline, and I don't have a life outside of it, but that's a price I'm happy to pay.
