Keeping up with Anwar Robinson

Once considered to be the front runner of the fourth season of Idol, Anwar Robinson was not able to sustain enough enthusiasm to carry him to a win, and placed seventh instead. Although things have not necessarily panned out for him recording-wise, Anwar has been able to make a name for himself in the musical theatre world.

Last year, Anwar embarked on the 2007-2008 international tour of RENT, in which he played the role of Collins. The tour had stops in the U.S., Canada and Japan.

Anwar is now set to play Jesus in the Syracuse production of Godspell, which begins Nov. 25 and runs through Dec. 28. He also has a charity single called "Chosen," which is allegedly for sale but there is no link to purchase it on his official music MySpace page.
