In 2007 and 2008, Anwar starred as Collins in the touring production of RENT and starred as Jesus in Godspell in Syracuse, NY. He had a role in the 2008 movie Ski Trip 2: Friends and Lovers. Last fall, Anwar released his first solo single, Nights Hot. In October, Anwar, along with big Broadway stars, participated in a salute to the late Michael Jackson at Birdland in New York. Last month, Anwar joined stars such as Michelle Williams of Destinys Child, Musiq Soulchild, and more to record Prayer Song for Hope for Haiti.
