Chase will play the role of Connor Bailey, an ex-con partner of Ben’s (Joe Manganiello) who manages a burlesque club.

"White Collar," according to USA, "is about the unlikely partnership of a con artist and an FBI agent who have been playing cat and mouse for years. Neal Caffrey (Matt Bomer), a charming criminal mastermind, is finally caught by his nemesis, FBI Agent Peter Burke (Tim DeKay.) When Neal escapes from a maximum-security prison to find his long-lost love, Peter nabs him once again. Rather than returning to jail, Neal suggests an alternate plan: He'll provide his criminal expertise to assist the Feds in catching other elusive criminals in exchange for his eventual freedom."

Chase has also appeared on Broadway in The Story of My Life, Rent, The Full Monty, High Fidelity and Aida. His recent television appearances include the upcoming ABC drama "Pan Am," starring Christina Ricci (Time Stands Still), "Rescue Me," "Royal Pains" and "Law and Order Criminal Intent."

"White Collar" airs Tuesday nights at 9 PM ET on USA.
