Dan is joined by musical theatre superstar and more recently Pilates instructor, Jake O'Brien! Jake just came off a massive run on the Australian production of & Juliet.


We chat about being part of & Juliet, the creative process of working on the show, positive fan encounters, the humbling experience of going back to regular jobs, the difficulties of tour life, post show blues, becoming a Pilates instructor, shining in auditions, not looking at the audience, anxiety sometimes getting in the way, growing up wanting to be a VET, auditioning for Neighbours, always being a sensitive kid, working on Aladdin, having a break, getting in your own head, Inside Out 2, struggles to connect with others, the hard moment of saying goodbye to & Juliet, resetting your body during a show, the spontaneity of becoming a dancer, playing rugby league, family, West Side Story, sustaining a serious injury, having too many emotions, and so much more!
