On this episode I talk with Jess about the moment he knew he wanted to be a performer, making his Broadway debut in The Boy From Oz as a kid and Hugh Jackman bringing the curtain back up so Jess could bow one more time, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas on Broadway breaking Wicked’s box office record at one point while he was in the show, what made him want to audition for So You Think You Can Dance and whether he ever thought he’d make the top 8 on the show, what touring with SYTYCD was like, his audition process for Newsies, when he realized how popular a show Newsies was, the Newsies 10th Anniversary, the makeup in Cats (in which he played Mungojerrie), his dream roles, his upcoming GreenRoom 42 solo show, and more!
