“The Glee Project” returns for its second season June 5 with additional themes, all new music and more episodes as the contestants are narrowed down through intensive rounds of workshops, singing, dancing and acting-based assignments, according to a news release.

Fourteen contenders will begin the 11-episode season and will be assessed by “Glee” executive producer Ryan Murphy ; casting director Robert Ulrich; choreographer and “Glee” co-producer Zach Woodlee; and vocal producer Nikki Anders in each installment of the series to decide who will win the show’s prize – a seven episode guest starring role on “Glee.”

In the first episode of the second season entitled “Individuality,” the 14 contestants are given their first “homework assignment,” with each contender given the chance to showcase their personalities, and the winner of this task is rewarded with some one-on-one time with guest mentor Lea Michele (“Glee’s Rachel Berry”).

With the assistance of the mentors (casting director Robert Ulrich, choreographer Zach Woodlee and vocal coach Nikki Anders), the contestants get ready for the main challenge – a performance of Whitesnake’s “Here I Go Again.”
