Nick Blaemire, who graduated from the University of Michigan's musical theater program five years ago, will be featured on Sunday's episode of the hit TV drama "The Good Wife."

"I'll be guest starring as Sgt. Wade Compton, a night watchman on duty who overhears the rape of a military officer, Capt. Holloway, played by Amanda Peet, by another military officer," Blaemire said in an email. "I got to do a great little scene with Amanda, Juliana Marguiles and Brian Dennehy, where Brian Dennehy plays a defense lawyer cross examining me. it was a blast to be a part of!"

Blaemire, who grew up in Bethesda, Maryland, was most recently featured on Broadway in "Godspell," but his post-college career started as a cast member of an "Altar Boyz" touring company, and he wrote music and lyrics for "Glory Days" while performing as part of the original Broadway cast of "Cry Baby."

"The Good Wife" airs at 9 p.m. Sunday on CBS.
