The next episode of Glee will feature Kurt (Chris Colfer) donning a pair of green tights for a small production of Peter Pan, giving him a very minor taste of the spotlight.

Series Regular Since First Episode NOT Returning for Final Year?

Colfer spoke with E! Online recently about the upcoming episode of Glee titled Old Dog, New Tricks, which is also written by Colfer himself.

"The main storyline is about Kurt. He's really one of the only ones left in the group who hasn't really made a name for himself yet, and he's feeling very down about that. So he's looking for something to supply him with that validation," Colfer revealed.

Colfer explained that Kurt comes face to face with a woman named Maggie, who is living in an assisted living home. He then decides to perform in the home's production of Peter Pan. He is presumably playing the titular character.

This episode is set to air on Tuesday, May 6. This will be the penultimate episode of Glee's eventful fifth season.

There has been some negative buzz in the press for Glee after news of star Naya Rivera (Santana) being fired from the show was leaked. Fox has since come out with a statement saying that the allegations were false and that Rivera was still a part of the Glee family.

"There is no truth to the rumor Naya has been fired from the show," Fox said in a statement released to The Associated Press Saturday, "She remains under contract to Glee."

Glee season 5 airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. on Fox.
